Brief Summary

General Objective: To compare the prognostic value of the FODE scale for COPD exacerbations, where the fat-free mass index (FFMI) will be measured instead of the body mass index (BMI) in the BODE scale. Specific objectives: to describe the nutritional status of COPD patients according by the GesEPOC and GOLD phenotypes; to compare the mortality prognostic value of FODE with BODE; to compare the exacerbations and mortality prognostic value of the BODCAT scale, which includes the CAT questionnaire instead of the six-minute walking test (6MWT), with BODE; to compare the mortality prognostic value of the FODE and FODEx scales, where the BMI and the 6MWT will be substituted by the FFMI and the severe exacerbations in the previous year, respectively, with BODE and BODEx. Methods: prospective, with no intervention besides the recommendations of COPD clinical guidelines, where patients will be allocated into three parallel and open groups according to their forced expiratory flow in the first second (FEV1) in the fashion FEV1 \< 30%: FEV1 30-50% : FEV1 \> 50%, and will be followed for at least two years. FFMI will be measured using bioelectrical impedance analysis. Exacerbations and mortality will be recorded during follow-up to evaluate the prognostic value of the FODE scale, which hypothetically will increase in 10% the prognostic value of the BODE scale.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (6)

  • Fat Free Mass Index

    Weight in kilograms and body fat percentage will be measured by bioelectrical impedance analysis, and height in meters. Weight, height and boday fat percentage will be combined to report Fat Free Mass Index.

    Baseline

  • Incidence of exacerbations

    Total frequency of exacerbations, frequency of exacerbations that required hospitalization and exacerbations free period since baseline.

    12 months after inclusion

  • Forced Expiratory Volumen in the first second

    Mililiters of expired volume in the first second during a forced spirometry

    Baseline

  • Body Mass Index

    Weight in kilograms and and height in meters. Weight and height will be combined to report Body Mass Index

    Baseline

  • Dyspnea

    Dyspnea degree measured by the modified Medical Research Council Dyspnea Scale. Score ranges from 0 to 4, higher scores indicate worse dyspnea.
