Severe Prospective Observational Study of COPD in Catalonia

Overview

Multicenter observational study to characterize and follow-up a cohort of patients with severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in Catalonia

Detailed description

Creation of the first multicenter observational study in Catalonia to characterize and follow-up of patients with severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. The follow-up will be up to 5 years, with a first initial visit and control visits every year. All patients will be recruited from respiratory departments from major hospitals from Catalonia, a region with approximately 8 million inhabitants and a wide web of public hospitals.

Primary outcome measures

  • Cohort creation in Catalonia [Time frame: Up to 5 years]
  • Describe the demographic and clinical characteristics of patients with severe COPD in Catalonia. [Time frame: Up to 5 years]
  • Assess the natural history and prognosis of severe COPD [Time frame: Up to 5 years]
Secondary outcome measures (3)
  • Assess effect of the different treatments, both inhaled and non-inhaled, on the disease progression and according to the patient's phenotype. [Time frame: Up to 5 years]
  • Impact of exacerbations and chronic bronchial infection on the evolution of COPD [Time frame: Up to 5 years]
  • Importance of comorbidities in the evolution of COPD [Time frame: Up to 5 years]

Eligibility criteria

Inclusion criteria

  • Informed consent: a signed and dated written informed consent prior to study participation
  • Age: Subjects 35 years of age or order at visit 1.
  • Severe COPD diagnosis: an established severe COPD defined by spirometry values:
  • A post-albuterol/salbutamol FEV1/FVC ratio of <0.70 at visit 1. FEV1: forced expiratory volume at one second FVC: forced vital capacity.
  • A post-bronchodilator FEV1 < 50% predicted normal
  • Smoking history: ≥ 10 pack-years at visit 1
  • Stable phase of the disease (not less than 4 weeks of stability prior visit 1)

Exclusion criteria

  • Subjects not giving written informed consent.
  • Subjects at risk of non-compliance, or unable to comply with the scheduled visits.
  • Subjects affected mainly by another severe chronic respiratory disease that justifies the ventilatory alteration, for example pulmonary fibrosis or severe bronchiectasis
  • Subjects with carcinoma that has not been in complete remission for at least 5 years.
  • Subjects with α1-antitrypsin deficiency as the underlying cause of COPD

Criteria are shown verbatim from the registry (in English). Final eligibility is always assessed by the study center.
