Satisfaction with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease treatment: results from a multicenter, observational study.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Understanding the level of patients' satisfaction with treatment and its determinants have the potential to impact therapeutic management and clinical outcome in chronic conditions such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). METHODS:A national, multicenter, longitudinal, observational study of COPD from 20 Italian pulmonary centers to explore patients' satisfaction to treatment [assessed by the Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire, 9 items (TSQM-9)] and association with clinical parameters [including dyspnea score, COPD Assessment Test (CAT) score, exacerbation rate], adherence to treatment [Morisky Medication-Taking Adherence Scale (MMAS-4)], illness perception [evaluated by Brief Illness Perception Questionnaire (B-IPQ)] in a 1-year follow up. RESULTS:A total of 401 COPD patients were enrolled [69.4% group B Global Initiative for COPD (GOLD), considering 366 patients with available GOLD 2017 classification at enrollment]. At enrollment, satisfaction with treatment was moderate, being TSQM-9 mean scores for effectiveness 64.2 [95% confidence interval (CI) 62.5-65.9], for convenience 75.8 (95% CI 74.2-77.3), and for global satisfaction 65.7 (95% CI 64.0-67.4). Global satisfaction was negatively associated with disease perception (??=?-0.4709, p?

Project description:BackgroundChronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) receives low awareness and is undertreated in China. Understanding the burden and treatment of COPD across the nation is important for improving quality of care for this disease. This study aims to reveal the current situation of COPD severity distribution and management across China.MethodsBaseline data from REALizing and Improving Management of Stable COPD in China, a multicentre, prospective, longitudinal, observational study, were analysed. Patients diagnosed with COPD as per Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease 2016 (GOLD 2016) criteria were enrolled from 50 randomly selected hospitals (tertiary, 25; secondary, 25) across six geographical regions. Data were collected in routine clinical settings.ResultsBetween 15 December 2017 and 6 August 2020, 5013 patients were enrolled and 4978 included in the full analysis set. Of these, 2459 (49.4%) reported ≥ 1 exacerbation within 12 months prior to study enrolment, with a mean annual rate of 0.9/patient, including 0.2/patient and 0.5/patient leading to emergency room visits and hospitalisation, respectively. Spirometry graded 458 (10.1%), 1886 (41.7%), 1558 (34.5%), and 616 (13.6%) were GOLD stage I-IV, and 536 (11.4%), 1034 (22.0%), 563 (12.0%), and 2566 (54.6%) were classified as GOLD 2016 Group A-D, respectively, without evident regional variations. Inhaled corticosteroids plus long-acting beta2-agonist (ICS/LABA, 1316 [26.4%]), ICS/LABA plus long-acting muscarinic antagonist (ICS/LABA + LAMA, 871 [17.5%]), and LAMA (754 [15.1%]) were prescribed at high rates across all groups and regions. Medications not recommended by GOLD were commonly prescribed (TCM, 578 [11.6%]; others, 951 [19.1%]), and 681 (13.7%) were not given ICS or long-acting bronchodilators.ConclusionsDisease burden among Chinese COPD outpatients is high. Improved guideline adherence for COPD treatment is needed. Trial registration ClinicalTrials.gov identifier, NCT03131362.

Project description:BackgroundCoronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has been a global pandemic disease, with more than 4 million cases and nearly 300,000 deaths. Little is known about COVID-19 in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). We aimed to evaluate the influence of preexisting COPD on the progress and outcomes of COVID-19.MethodsThis was a multicenter, retrospective, observational study. We enrolled 1,048 patients aged 40 years and above, including 50 patients with COPD and 998 patients without COPD, and with COVID-19 confirmed via high-throughput sequencing or real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction, between December 11, 2019 and February 20, 2020. We collected data of demographics, pathologic test results, radiologic imaging, and treatments. The primary outcomes were composite endpoints determined by admission to an intensive care unit, the use of mechanical ventilation, or death.ResultsCompared with patients who had COVID-19 but not COPD, those with COPD had higher rates of fatigue (56.0% vs. 40.2%), dyspnea (66.0% vs. 26.3%), diarrhea (16.0% vs. 3.6%), and unconsciousness (8.0% vs. 1.7%) and a significantly higher proportion of increased activated partial thromboplastin time (23.5% vs. 5.2%) and D-dimer (65.9% vs. 29.3%), as well as ground-glass opacities (77.6% vs. 60.3%), local patchy shadowing (61.2% vs. 41.4%), and interstitial abnormalities (51.0% vs. 19.8%) on chest computed tomography. Patients with COPD were more likely to develop bacterial or fungal coinfection (20.0% vs. 5.9%), acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) (20.0% vs. 7.3%), septic shock (14.0% vs. 2.3%), or acute renal failure (12.0% vs. 1.3%). Patients with COPD and COVID-19 had a higher risk of reaching the composite endpoints [hazard ratio (HR): 2.17, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.40-3.38; P=0.001] or death (HR: 2.28, 95% CI: 1.15-4.51; P=0.019), after adjustment.ConclusionsIn this study, patients with COPD who developed COVID-19 showed a higher risk of admission to the intensive care unit, mechanical ventilation, or death.

Project description:The prevalence of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and its associated comorbidities increase with age. However, little is understood about differences in the disease in patients over 65 years of age compared with younger patients.To determine disease characteristics of COPD and its impact in older patients compared with younger patients.We examined baseline characteristics of patients with COPD (global obstructive lung disease stage II-IV) in 2 large cohorts: Genetic Epidemiology of COPD Study (COPDGene) and Evaluation of COPD Longitudinally to Identify Predictive Surrogate Endpoints (ECLIPSE). We compared demographics, indices of disease severity, prevalence of comorbidities, exacerbation frequency, and quality of life scores in patients ?65 years of age vs patients <65 years of age. We also tested for associations of age with disease characteristics and health outcomes.In the COPDGene cohort, older patients (n = 1663) had more severe disease as measured by forced expiratory volume in 1 second (1.22 vs 1.52 L, P < .001), use of long-term oxygen therapy (35% vs 22%, P < .001), 6-minute walk distance (355 vs 375 m, P < .001), and radiographic evidence of emphysema (14% vs 8%, P < .001) and air trapping (47% vs 36%, P < .001) and were more likely to have comorbidities compared with younger patients (n = 2027). Similarly, in the ECLIPSE cohort, older patients (n = 1030) had lower forced expiratory volume in 1 second (1.22 vs 1.34 L, P < .001), greater use of long-term oxygen therapy (7% vs 5%, P = .02), shorter 6- minute walk distance (360 vs 389 m, P < .001), and more radiographic evidence of emphysema (17% vs 14%, P = .009) than younger patients (n = 1131). In adjusted analyses of both cohorts, older age was associated with decreased frequency of exacerbations [odds ratio = 0.52, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 0.43-0.64 in COPDGene, odds ratio = 0.79, 95% CI = 0.64-0.99 in ECLIPSE] and a better quality of life (lower St. Georges respiratory questionnaire score) (? = -8.7, 95% CI = -10.0 to -7.4 in COPDGene, ? = -4.4, 95% CI = -6.1 to -3.2 in ECLIPSE).Despite greater severity of illness, older patients with COPD had better quality of life and reported fewer exacerbations than younger patients. Although this observation needs to be explored further, it may be related to the fact that older patients change their expectations and learn to adapt to their disease.
