Brief Summary

Though exacerbations in the COPD (Chronic Pulmonary Obstructive Disease) and specially the most severe cases (hospitalizations) are currently a fundamental outcome in the COPD due to its clinical and economic significance, there are many unanswered questions still today such as the very definition of exacerbation itself. Research parameters like the CPD (Cell Population Data) are added to the basic blood count. The CPD of the XN analyzers (Sysmex Corporation, Kobe, Japan) provide quantitative information of the morphological and functional characteristics of the leukocytes: their volume, content of nucleic acids and structure of the cytoplasm. The CPD are numerical data which represent the morphology which characterizes the neutrophils, lymphocytes, monocytes, eosinophils and platelets classifying them as per their volume and shape, granularity and their content of nucleic acids. The approach is that such cheap and accessible technique can provide relevant information in the area of COPD exacerbations. Therefore, this study proposes several objectives:

  1. 1.Establish the CPD values for each phenotype of COPD (both for those already established in the Spanish guide of COPD and in the potential phenotypes which may be established in this study based on the CPDs themselves).
  2. 2.Identify which, among the CPDs, are more relevant in relation to cellular activation (neutrophils, lymphocytes, eosinophils and platelets) both in the stage of clinical stability and during the severe exacerbation.
  3. 3.Establish different phenotypes of COPD (in stable phase) according to the CPD values.
  4. 4.Determine the existence of an association between the level of activation of these cells in stability phase of the COPD and the risk of exacerbation; establish the optimum cutoff points.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Establish CPD (Cellular Popular Data) values for each phenotype of COPD.

    * CPD (Cellular Popular Data): morphological parameters measured in the blood count cells (neutrophils, lymphocytes, eosinophils and platelets). * Phenotypes of COPD described in Spanish COPD guideline (GesEPOC): * No exacerbator: patient with 0-1 exacerbation per year, without admission * Exacerbator with emphysema: patient with emphysema and 2 or more exacerbations per year or 1 admission * Exacerbator with chronic bronchitis: patient with chronic bronchitis and 2 or more exacerbations per year or 1 admission * Mixed phenotype: asthma-COPD overlap: a patient with COPD and diagnostic criteria for asthma, or with a very positive bronchodilator test (increase in FEV1\> 400ml and 15%) and / or peripheral blood eosinophilia greater than 300cells / mm3.
