The 90-day mortality rate was %11.8. Hypertension, increased median age, nutrition risk score (NRS), CCS, CAT score, and mMRC 4th level were possible risk factors for 90-day mortality. There was a significant difference in the mortality of patients with D-dimer\/Fibrinogen ratios&gt;0.11 and \u22640.11 (HR:2.47; p&lt;0.05). Recurrent exacerbations after discharge were predictive risk factors for 90-day mortality in the multivariable regression model (HR:2.25; p&lt;0.001) with the increased mortality risk 4.73 times (HR:4.73; p=0.002). Furthermore, a 1-unit increment of acute exacerbation increased the mortality risk 3.39 times (HR:3.39; p&lt;0.001).<br><strong>Conclusion<\/strong><br>Our study showed that D-dimer\/Fibrinogen ratio but not D-dimer and recurrent exacerbations after discharge might have a critical impact on 90-day mortality.<br><strong>Keywords:<\/strong> COPD, D-dimer, exacerbation, mortality, prognosis<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mmj.mw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Cihan-Aydin.pdf\">Download PDF<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cihan Aydin1, Birsen P\u0131nar Y\u0131ld\u0131z2*, Didem G\u00f6rg\u00fcn Hattato\u011flu3 University of Health Sciences, Yedikule Chest Disease and Thoracic Surgery Training and Research Hospital, \u0130stanbul, Turkey University of Health Sciences, Yedikule Chest Disease and Thoracic Surgery Training and Research Hospital, \u0130stanbul, Turkey University of Health Sciences, Yedikule Chest Disease and Thoracic Surgery Training and Research Hospital, \u0130stanbul, [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[117,114],"tags":[66],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.mmj.mw\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12267"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.mmj.mw\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.mmj.mw\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mmj.mw\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mmj.mw\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=12267"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.mmj.mw\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12267\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":12296,"href":"https:\/\/www.mmj.mw\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12267\/revisions\/12296"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.mmj.mw\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=12267"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mmj.mw\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=12267"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mmj.mw\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=12267"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
