ABSTRACT
Objective:
To analyze the response of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) with multiple and few symptoms to different inhalation drugs, including acute exacerbation and symptom changes.Methods:
This study was a multi center, retrospective Cohort study. The subjects of this study were patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease in stable stage in 12 hospitals in Hunan and Guangxi from December 2016 to February 2022. Demographics data, lung function, Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Assessment test questionnaire (CAT) score, modified British Medical Research Council dyspnea questionnaire (mMRC) score and inhalation drug scheme of patients were collected. According to the CAT and mMRC scores, patients were divided into a multi symptom group (CAT≥10 points or mMRC≥2 points) or a few symptom group (CAT<10 points and mMRC<1 point); Subsequently, they were divided into four subgroups based on the inhalation drug regimen long-acting anticholinergic drugs (LAMA) group, long-acting β2-receptor agonists (LABA)+ inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) group, LABA+ LAMA group, and LABA+ LAMA+ ICS group. All patients were followed up for 1 year, with minimum clinical improvement (MCID) defined as a decrease of ≥2 points in the patient′s CAT score at 6 months, and clinical symptom deterioration (CSD) defined as an increase of ≥2 points in the patient′s CAT score at 6 months.Results:
A total of 929 patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease were included, including 719(77.4%) with multiple symptoms and 210(22.6%) with few symptoms. There was no statistically significant difference in MCID, CSD, acute exacerbation, hospitalization frequency, and mortality rate among subgroups of asymptomatic COPD patients treated with different inhalation drug regimens (all P>0.05). Among patients with multiple symptoms of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, compared to those who use LAMA or LABA+ ICS, those who used LABA+ LAMA or LABA+ LAMA+ ICS were more likely to obtain MCID and had a more significant improvement in CAT scores, and the risk of acute exacerbation is lower (all P<0.05).Conclusions:
Lesser symptomatic COPD patients should receive single drug LAMA as the initial inhalation treatment drug, while multi symptomatic COPD patients should receive LABA+ LAMA as the initial inhalation treatment drug.
