•A history of at least 1 exacerbation in the previous 12 months, requiring systemic corticosteroids and/or antibiotics.
•Current or ex-smoker with at least a 10 pack year smoking history
•In the opinion of the research staff, is able and willing to comply with all trial requirements.
•Are the trial subjects under 18? no
•Number of subjects for this age range: 0

•History of atopic childhood asthma
•Current history of primary lung malignancy or current active pulmonary TB

•An alternative cause for the increase in symptoms of COPD that are unrelated to an exacerbation such as i) suspicion or clinical evidence of pneumonia; ii) high probability and suspicion of pulmonary embolism; iii) suspicion or clinical evidence of a pneumothorax; iv) primary ischaemic event – ST or Non ST elevation myocardial infarct and left ventricular failure [i.e. not an exacerbation of COPD]
