Recently there have been a series of studies which reinforced that COPD is a key independent risk factor for adverse outcomes after revascularization. There is no optimal revascularization strategy; however, there was a nonsignificant signal of potential benefit with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with short-term outcomes in the SYNTAXES trial. Currently, pulmonary function tests (PFT) are limited in clarifying risk assessments prior to revascularization, and there are investigations into the use of biomarkers to provide further insight into this increased risk of adverse outcomes in patients with COPD.</p><p><strong>Summary: </strong>COPD is a key risk factor for poor outcomes in patients requiring revascularization.
