Abstract
The objective of the “IKAR-COPD” study was to evaluate quality of life in COPD patients with different treatment regimens.
This multi-center population-based study was performed in 10 regions of Russia, 702 COPD patients aged 40 to 85 yrs were included in this study: 18.5 % with COPD stage I, 20.7 % with COPD stage II, 40.9 % with COPD stage III and 19.9 % with COPD stage IV (according to the GOLD 2003 criteria).
The official Russian versions of the MOS SF-36 questionnaire and the St. George’s Respiratory Questionnaire (SGRQ) were used as generic and disease-specific health-related measures of quality of life.
COPD significantly impaired the patients’ quality of life, mostly their physical activity. The quality of life depended on severity of COPD, a patient’s age, duration of the disease and smoking history.
