| Scientific title | The chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) assessment test in pulmonary rehabilitation: a prospective, multicentre cohort study |
| Study acronym | CATerPillaR study |
| Study objectives | To establish what changes in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease assessment test (CAT) occur after pulmonary rehabilitation and relate these to changes in other parameters that are routinely measured. |
| Ethics approval(s) | Riverside Research Ethics Committee approved on the 11th March 2010 (ref: 10/H0706/15) |
| Health condition(s) or problem(s) studied | Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease |
| Intervention | Prospective collection of routinely collected, anonymised, outcome data including the COPD assessment test score (CAT) from several pulmonary rehabilitation programs. Pulmonary rehabilitation is a program of supervised exercise and education, usually lasting about 8 weeks designed to improve symptoms and functional capacity for patients with respiratory disease. Measures of quality of life and walking distance are taken at baseline and after the course to assess response routinely. |
| Intervention type | Other |
| Primary outcome measure(s) |
Change in CAT score versus anchor score of self-reported improvement 1 - 5 |
| Key secondary outcome measure(s) |
1. Change in CAT score versus walking distance |
