The primary endpoint was 90-day mortality. <b>Measurements and Main Results:</b> In total, 1,164 patients were admitted throughout the study period. At the time of ICU admission, 765 (66%) patients presented with multiple organ dysfunction, including acute respiratory failure in 40% (<i>n</i> = 461). The median sepsis-related organ failure assessment score was 6 (interquartile range, 4-8). Invasive mechanical ventilation, renal replacement therapy, and vasopressors were required in 438 (38%), 221 (19%), and 468 (41%) patients, respectively. ICU mortality was 26% (302 deaths).

There is no single test for RSV in adults that has acceptable diagnostic accuracy. Trials of RSV vaccines have recently shown excellent safety and efficacy against RSV in older adults; defining the frequency of RSV-related community infections and COPD exacerbations is important for vaccine deployment decisions. <b>Objectives:</b> This prospective study aimed to establish the frequency of outpatient-managed RSV-related exacerbations of COPD in two well-characterized patient cohorts using a combination of diagnostic methods. <b>Methods:</b> Participants were recruited at specialist clinics in London, United Kingdom, and Groningen, the Netherlands, beginning in 2017 and observed for three consecutive RSV seasons, during exacerbations, and at least twice yearly. RSV infections were detected by RT-PCR and serologic testing. <b>Measurements and Main Results:</b> A total of 377 patients with COPD attended 1,999 clinic visits and reported 310 exacerbations. There were 27 RSV-related exacerbations (8.7% of the total); of these, seven were detected only by PCR, 16 only by serology, and four by both methods. Increases in RSV-specific Nucleoprotein antibody were as sensitive as those in the antibody to Pre-Fusion or Post-Fusion for serodiagnosis of RSV-related exacerbations. <b>Conclusions:</b> RSV is associated with 8.7% of outpatient-managed COPD exacerbations in this study. Antibodies to RSV Nucleoprotein may have diagnostic value and are potentially important in a vaccinated population.
