Health care utilization history, GOLD guidelines, and respiratory medication prescriptions in patients with COPD.

Abstract:

BACKGROUND:The relationship between prior health care utilization and respiratory medication prescriptions in an unselected population of patients with COPD is not known. METHODS:We determined the prescribed respiratory medications and respiratory and nonrespiratory health care encounters in 523 Veterans with COPD at the Cincinnati Veterans Affairs Medical Center between 2000 and 2005. Prescribed treatments were compared with the GOLD guidelines and each patient was classified as receiving less medications than recommended in the guidelines (G). RESULTS:Respiratory medications were G for 14% of the patients studied. For GOLD stages 1 and 2, G patients the most prior respiratory encounters during a 12 month period (0.31 +/- 0.073 (0.21, 0.47), 0.75 +/- 0.5 (0.37, 1.5), 1.1 +/- 0.27 (0.74, 1.6) visits/person/year, G, respectively, mean + standard error of mean (SEM) (95% confidence limits) 2 degrees of freedom (df) ANOVA P < 0.001 for prescription effect). For GOLD stages 3 and 4, G respectively, 2 df ANOVA P = 0.096) or for GOLD stages 3 and 4 (3.6 +/- 0.25 (3.2, 4.1) and 4.0 +/- 0.44 (3.3, 4.9) visits/person/year,
