Comparison of the variability of the annual rates of change in FEV(1) determined from serial measurements of the pre- versus post-bronchodilator FEV(1) over 5 years in mild to moderate COPD: Results of the lung health study

BACKGROUND: The impact of interventions on the progressive course of COPD is currently assessed by the slope of the annual decline in FEV(1) determined from serial measurements of the post-, in preference to the pre-, bronchodilator FEV(1).
