Conditions

Pulmonary Disease, Chronic Obstructive

Brief summary

The objective of this study is to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of the GLORI-COPD score in ambulatory care, to enable the screening of COPD patients at risk of complications, requiring early management

Detailed description

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a chronic disease with a high prevalence in France, but which remains under-diagnosed due to the trivialization of symptoms and difficulty in accessing diagnostic investigations. It is associated with other co-morbidities, with an impact on the occurrence of complications and quality of life. Early management of the most severe patients would allow better control of these risks of complications. Our objective is to better identify patients with COPD at risk of complications in general practice, taking into account the totality of the patient, to improve their management.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
diagnostic accuracy of the score12 monthsThe diagnostic accuracy of the score will be evaluated to determine the risk of pulmonary complication in patients with COPD. Sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
COPD diagnosisBaselineFEV1/FVC \< 0.7
complications6 and 12 months-Composite criterion: Occurrence of a low respiratory infection (bronchitis, COPD exacerbation, lung infection or pneumonitis) in an outpatient or inpatient setting or following a death (1st event)
death12 months
Modified Medical Research Council Dyspnea scale score (mMRC)baseline, 6 and 12 monthsevaluating dyspnea from 0 to 4: 0, no breathlessness except on strenuous exercise; 1, shortness of breath when hurrying on the level or walking up a slight hill; 2, walks slower than people of same age on the level because of breathlessness or has to stop to catch breath when walking at their own pace on the level; 3, stops for breath after walking ∼100 m or after few minutes on the level; and 4, too breathless to leave the house, or breathless when dressing or undressing
COPD Assessment test (CAT)baseline, 6 and 12 monthsscores from 0-40. Higher scores denote a more severe impact of COPD on a patient's life
ADO index (Age, Dyspnea, Obstruction)baseline, 6 and 12 monthsevaluates mortality risk in copd patients from 0 to 14 (higher scores are linked woh higher mortality risk)
GOLD stagebaselineCOPD severity from A (less severe) to D (very severe)
