Results: Eighty-eight percent of the admitted patients had current or past smoking habit of ‘Bidi’ and 9% were cigarette smokers. of admitted patients, 46% had at least one co-morbid condition. Mean FEV1 was 42.5%. Conclusion: Study concluded that the hospitalized patient with AE-COPD suggests spirometric impairments because majority of the patients had current or past smoking habits.
