Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

In this study we analyzed the overall survival for all newly diagnosed patients with non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis from June 2006 onwards. The investigators wanted to confirm the known risk factors such as age, gender, smoking history and Pseudomonas aeruginosa and evaluate the impact on survival of etiology, number of different bacteriological species in retrospective and prospective sputa, azithromycin use and presence/development of pulmonary hypertension.
