Today is World COPD Day 2025. Despite powerful controller therapies, too many patients are stuck relying on short-acting agents that don’t change disease course. In this new Breathe Easy podcast, Dr. Antonio Anzueto (UT Health San Antonio), with host Amy Attaway (Cleveland Clinic), breaks down: • Why controller meds are underutilized • What’s behind the overuse of SABAs • How AI and imaging could reshape diagnosis • And why COPD is no longer just a lung disease 💡 “We’ve reduced exacerbations. We’ve reduced mortality. COPD is treatable — but only if we use the right meds.” Watch the conversation on #Vumedi: https://lnkd.in/gpJHr52S For more ATS Breathe Easy podcasts: https://lnkd.in/gKqpuuaB #WorldCOPDDay #COPD #Pulmonology #RespiratoryMedicine #DigitalHealth #ControllerMedications #ChronicCare
