Patients with chronic airway disease may present features of both asthma and COPD, commonly referred to as asthma-COPD overlap (ACO). Currently recommendations on the diagnosis of ACO are diffuse and inconsistent. A Belgian expert panel developed a survey completed by 87 Belgian pulmonologists with the aim to identify consensus on criteria for diagnosing ACO.

This slidekit provides more details on a recent publication in the International Journal of COPD based on this survey.
