Q

– Combo of chronic airway inflammation and remodeling that results in air trapping from hyperinflation. – Loss of the normal elastic recoil of the lungs. – Capillary beds thicken and eventually are destroyed. - Ventilation and perfusion in the capillary membrane are no longer matched. This results in hypoxemia. – The decreased oxygenation leads to hypercapnea or too much carbon dioxide in the blood.
