Abstract
The Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD) has published the complete 2023 GOLD report, which can be freely downloaded from its web page (www.goldcopd.org) together with a“pocket guide” and a “teaching slide set”. It contains important changes compared to earlier versions, and incorporates 387 new references. Here, we present an executive summary of this GOLD 2023 report that (1) summarizes aspects that are relevant from a clinician’s perspective and (2) updates evidence published since the prior executive summary in 2017.
