Abstract

Summary. Clinical and functional status including quality of life, CAT test and BODE index in relation to level of hypoxemia was assessed in 44 patients with COPD only and in 35 patients with COPD and cardiovascular co-morbidity (ischemic disease heart and systemic hypertension). CAT score, BODE index and MRS score were higher and 6-min walking distance was shorter in hypoxemic COPD patients n comparison to COPD patients without hypoxemia. The most significant disorders were seen in COPD patients with cardiovascular co-morbidity. CAT is a simple and effective test to assess the impact of disease on health status in COPD patients with cardiovascular co-morbidity and hypoxemia.
