Cardiopulmonary Risk in Patients with COPD – Webinar Overview

Cardiopulmonary Risk in Patients with COPD is a free, focused lunchtime webinar designed for primary care professionals managing long‑term respiratory conditions. Although COPD is often viewed as a single disease, it rarely exists in isolation. Moreover, cardiovascular disease is one of its most significant and frequently overlooked comorbidities.

Consequently, this session explores how cardiopulmonary risk appears in everyday practice and what clinicians can do to optimise patient outcomes. Additionally, you’ll learn how COPD and cardiovascular disease interact, why cardiopulmonary risk is elevated, and how to recognise features that may indicate an alternative or co‑existing cardiac cause of worsening breathlessness.

Furthermore, the webinar highlights the increased risk of cardiovascular events following COPD exacerbations, particularly in the post‑exacerbation period, when patients are most vulnerable. You will also see how a holistic COPD review can be applied to assess and optimise both respiratory and cardiovascular risk, ensuring safer and more effective long‑term management

What you’ll learn

• Understand how COPD and cardiovascular disease interact and why cardiopulmonary risk is high
• Recognise the increased cardiovascular event risk following COPD exacerbations
• Identify clinical features suggesting cardiac or co‑existing causes of worsening breathlessness
• Apply a holistic COPD review to optimise respiratory and cardiovascular risk

Who is it for?

This webinar is ideal for GPs, Practice Nurses, ANPs, Pharmacists, HCAs, AHPs, and anyone involved in long‑term condition management. It is particularly valuable for clinicians seeking clearer, practical insight into the cardiopulmonary risks that shape everyday COPD care.
