In this APAPP podcast, Brian Bizik, MS, PA-C, DFAAPA is joined by Justine Sicari, CRNP, to recap their COPD Bootcamp presented live at the 2026 APAPP National Conference in Las Vegas. The session reviews the 2026 GOLD guideline updates and their central focus on reducing exacerbations, along with the concept of disease activity and how multiple comorbidities and precision medicine shape whole-patient COPD care.Brian and Justine also address what comes next when a patient on optimized inhaler therapy is adherent and has completed pulmonary rehab. They discuss GOLD's exacerbation pathway, the significance of one or more exacerbations in the past year, the role of type 2 inflammation in COPD, and emerging step-up options including chronic azithromycin and the biologics now approved for COPD. Tune in for key clinical insights on early intervention, identifying candidates for step-up therapy, and the expanding treatment landscape in COPD. Register to join us for the 2027 APAPP National Conference in New Orleans. For more expert-driven pulmonary education, visit the Pulm Hub and the APAPP ACE app.
