Brief summary
The aim of this study is to evaluate the usefulness of the chronic obstructive pulmonary disease-population questionnaire (COPD-PS) and the COPD-6 device in the early detection of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease in smoker patients .
Interventions
To verify the tobacco withdrawal, the patients will make a cooximetry. For the detection of a possible obstructive pattern a measurement of the ventilatory capacity will be make using the COPD-6 device and for the confirmation of COPD diagnosis and the assesment of the airflow obstruction severity a spirometry will be make. The patients will also complete the COPD-PS questionnaire.
