Popis: |
COPD is known as a major cause of morbidity and mortality around the world. However, in France epidemiological data regarding COPD management in real life are scarce. The objective of our study was to analyze COPD management by pulmonologists in an observational cohort with a follow-up of three years in South-West of France. Pulmonologists included n=757 patients with COPD using a web-site questionnaire. Diagnosis of COPD was made using spirometry (FEV1/CVF 29 kg/m2) was higher in GOLD I-II (25% vs 12% in GOLD III-IV) whereas underweight was significantly higher in GOLD III-IV (22% vs 13% in GOLD I-II; p=0.0036). In our cohort, comorbidities differ according to COPD severity, and gender. Follow-up of these patients will provide interesting information to compare real-life management and guidelines implementation.
