Evaluation of the Respimat Inhaler vs. a HFA MDI Using Berodual in Patients With COPD With Poor MDI Technique.
A Randomised Open Label, Four Way, Cross-over Scintigraphic Evaluation of the Respimat Inhaler vs. a Metered Dose Inhaler (HFA-MDI) Using Berodual in Patients With Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) With Poor MDI Technique.

Brief Summary
The objective of this trial is to compare the total and regional deposition of aerosol in the lungs and oropharynx of patients with COPD and known poor MDI inhalation technique following inhalation of Berodual delivered via the Respimat inhaler and Berodual delivered via an HFA-metered dose inhaler achieved with their "natural" inhalation technique compared with taught "optimal" technique.
