A new chapter for COPD-X
Lung Foundation Australia and the COPD-X Committee are embarking on a major improvement initiative. Following stakeholder consultation and in response to advances in digital health, we’re reviewing how the guidelines are structured, updated, and shared with clinicians.
To support this, we’ve temporarily paused our regular evidence surveillance cycle. This allows us to focus on:
• Enhancing the structure and evidence synthesis methods
• Exploring modular, flexible formats for guidance
• Understanding how clinicians’ access and apply COPD-X in practice
This is part of a long-term vision to ensure COPD-X remains responsive, practical, and useful for clinicians across all settings.
COPD-X evidence reviews and updates will occur less frequently during this transition.
