Brief summary

The study does not involve testing of a drug (no treatment intervention). The study will will use spirometry (breathing tests) in subjects of 40 years of age and older with a history of cigarette smoking with chronic bronchitis to check their disease status and whether or not they have COPD. Also, study subjects will be asked to complete a questionnaire (to answer a list of questions on paper).

Interventions

This is a non-interventional (no drug treatment administered), prevalence (observational) study.

Post-bronchodilator Reversibility MeasuresDay 1 of a 1-day studyTo assess the reversibility in COPD, a bronchodilator was administered before performing another round of tests for comparison. This is commonly referred to as a reversibility test for the likelihood for a participant to revert to their baseline spirometric values or a post-bronchodilator test (Post BD) and is an important part in diagnosing asthma versus COPD, particularly since reversibility is not observed in the latter case. This differentiates COPD from other diseases.

The MRC scale is a 6-point scale (scores from 0 to 5; encompassing degrees of dyspnea of none, slight, moderate, moderately severe, severe, and very severe) used to assess (via a participant-completed questionnaire) the amount of routine daily physical activity that precipitates dyspnea. The levels of physical activity range from strenuous exercise, to walking (including up a slight hill, on level ground, and to 100 yards), and to dressing and undressing.

Post-bronchodilator Reversibility Measures

To assess the reversibility in COPD, a bronchodilator was administered before performing another round of tests for comparison. This is commonly referred to as a reversibility test for the likelihood for a participant to revert to their baseline spirometric values or a post-bronchodilator test (Post BD) and is an important part in diagnosing asthma versus COPD, particularly since reversibility is not observed in the latter case. This differentiates COPD from other diseases.
