About this study

The prevalence of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in patients with cardiovascular disease (CVD) is unknown, and whether or not COPD is adequately diagnosed and treated in these patients has not been investigated before.

We hypothesized that the prevalence of COPD would be significantly higher (30%) in patients with CVD than in the general population. Besides, we anticipated that COPD, a potentially treatable CV risk factor, would be undiagnosed in more than 80% of CVD patients.

Read the detailed description

We aim to compare clinical and spirometric data in three groups of individuals. Two of them are participants in an ongoing population-based study (CORSAIB) aimed at investigating the distribution of CVD risk factors in the general population of the Balearic Islands, Spain. The design and full methodological details of the CORSAIB study have been published elsewhere (Rigo F, et al. Rev Clin Espa 2005). A third group will include patients with stable CVD regularly visited at the referral hospital of our community.

Inclusion criteria for the study are male and female individuals, aged 40 to 81 years, residents of the Balearic Islands, and who are willing to participate in this research.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Prevalence of COPD defined according to the current GOLD guidelines as a post-bronchodilator forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1)/forced vital capacity (FVC) <0.7.

    Measured: Current

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Underdiagnosis of COPD

    Measured: Current

  2. Undertreatment of COPD

    Measured: Current

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease and Cardiovascular Disease, run by Cimera at 1 site in Spain.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Jun 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Spain. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Prevalence of COPD defined according to the current GOLD guidelines as a post-bronchodilator forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1)/forced vital capacity (FVC) <0.7. (time frame: Current). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00787748, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 15 Jun 2012; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 3 Nov 2026.
