Brief summary
The aim of the study is to develop a new patient-reported outcome (PRO) questionnaire measuring the impact of an acute exacerbation on daily lives of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). This questionnaire will aim to detect an acute exacerbation and resolution of exacerbation from the patient's perspective. At a later stage of development, this questionnaire will be able to measure the effect of anti bacterials in the treatment of acute exacerbations of COPD (AECOPD). This study will evaluate the factor structure, validity, reliability, and responsiveness of the GSK questionnaire in subjects who experience acute exacerbations of their COPD.
Interventions
GSK questionnaire will demonstrate the validity, reliability and responsiveness as a tool for measuring subject-reported outcomes during an acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
The SGRQ is a 50-item questionnaire with 76 weighted responses. It provides a Total score and three component scores: Symptoms (distress caused by respiratory symptoms), Activity (physical activities that cause or are limited by breathlessness), and Impacts (social and psychological effects of the disease). The Total score and each of the SGRQ sub-scores are scored from 0 to 100 where 0 indicates best and 100 indicates worst health.
The Acute SF-12v2 is a multipurpose short-form questionnaire with only 12 questions with two summary scores, the SF-12 Physical Component Summary (PCS-12) and the SF-12 Mental Component Summary (MCS-12). The scoring range for the PCS-12 and MCS-12 is 0 to 100, with a lower score indicating a poorer level of health
Global Efficacy questionnaire will be administered in an electronic form to validate test-retest reliability, responsiveness and minimum important difference (MID)

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Physician reported measures post-exacerbation | Up to Day 14 | — |
| SGRQ Scores at exacerbation | Up to Day 14 | The SGRQ is a 50-item questionnaire with 76 weighted responses. It provides a Total score and three component scores: Symptoms (distress caused by respiratory symptoms), Activity (physical activities that cause or are limited by breathlessness), and Impacts (social and psychological effects of the disease). The Total score and each of the SGRQ sub-scores are scored from 0 to 100 where 0 indicates best and 100 indicates worst health. An increase in score indicates worsening health. A change in the Total score of 4 units is consistent with a clinically significant change in the subject |

The scoring range for the PCS-12 and MCS-12 is 0 to 100, with a lower score indicating a poorer level of health. It has been translated and validated in most major languages. The Acute SF-12v2 is self-administered by patients, and completed on average in 2 minutes or less. |
