Source : https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s00455-022-10473-x
Both chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and dysphagia can be complicated by the shared physiological-psychoemotional manifestations of the conditions, such as anxiety and respiratory dysfunction. Despite their shared comorbidities, clinical...
Conclusion: Ultimately, to promote patient-centered care, we need to view the oral intake experience for individuals with COPD through a more comprehensive lens that incorporates the interrelationships between the physiological and psychoemotional manifestations of COPD and better educate patients on COPD’s impact on eating and drinking.

Effectiveness of COPD treatment with the combination of tiotropium/olodaterol in Polish standard clinical practice as measured by the improvement of CCQ: an observational study - PubMed
Source : https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35635728/
Introduction: COPD health-related quality of life (HRQoL) can be measured by the Clinical COPD Questionnaire (CCQ). In this study the CCQ was used to assess the therapeutic success of fixed-dose...
Conclusions: Tiotropium/olodaterol treatment improved clinical control in Polish COPD patients. The therapeutic success was the most pronounced in patients with more severe COPD and in the treatment-naive but occurred also in those with moderate disease and in previously treated subjects.
