Brief Summary

Although patients with bronchiectasis tend to have non reversible obstructive patterns on pulmonary function tests (PFTs), reversible obstruction is not uncommon. While bronchodilator response (BDR) is a main characteristic of asthma, the pathophysiology causing this phenomenon in bronchiectasis patients is less clear. The goal of this clinical trial is to assess BDR in patients with bronchiectasis. The main aims of this study:

  1. 1.To evaluate the role of bronchodilators in BDR testing of patients with bronchiectasis.
  2. 2.Characterize and compare BDR between different subgroups of patients with bronchiectasis, and compared to patients without bronchiectasis (healthy controls).
  3. 3.Identify demographics and other clinical variables associated with positive BDR

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Bronchodilator response compared to placebo (change in FEV1)

    Bronchodilator response = change in forced expiratory volume 1 second (FEV1) from pre to post salbutamol inhalation, compared to the same change after placebo. Results will be presented in "percent predicted" using global lung initiative (GLI) equations.

    spirometry results will be collected in one clinic visit in three steps: *baseline *15 minutes after first intervention (placebo or salbutamol) *15 minutes after second intervention (placebo or salbutamol)

  • Bronchodilator response compared to placebo (change in FVC)

    Bronchodilator response = change in forced vital capacity (FVC) from pre to post salbutamol inhalation, compared to the same change after placebo. Results will be presented in "percent predicted" using global lung initiative (GLI) equations.

    spirometry results will be collected in one clinic visit in three steps: *baseline *15 minutes after first intervention (placebo or salbutamol) *15 minutes after second intervention (placebo or salbutamol)

Secondary Outcomes (10)

  • response in specific bronchiectatic disease

    spirometry results will be collected in one clinic visit in three steps: *baseline *15 minutes after first intervention (placebo or salbutamol) *15 minutes after second intervention (placebo or salbutamol)

  • bronchiectasis compared to healthy controls

    spirometry results will be collected in one clinic visit in three steps: *baseline *15 minutes after first intervention (placebo or salbutamol) *15 minutes after second intervention (placebo or salbutamol)

  • Bronchodilator response by age

    spirometry results will be collected in one clinic visit in three steps: *baseline *15 minutes after first intervention (placebo or salbutamol) *15 minutes after second intervention (placebo or salbutamol)

  • Bronchodilator response by sex

    spirometry results will be collected in one clinic visit in three steps: *baseline *15 minutes after first intervention (placebo or salbutamol) *15 minutes after second intervention (placebo or salbutamol)

  • Bronchodilator response by bronchiectatic disease

    spirometry results will be collected in one clinic visit in three steps: *baseline *15 minutes after first intervention (placebo or salbutamol) *15 minutes after second intervention (placebo or salbutamol)

  • +5 more secondary outcomes

Masking Details
The Salbutamol inhaler and the placebo inhaler will be marked as '1' and '2'. The division Nurse will be in charge of marking the inhalers and all the rest of the team and participants will be blinded. The clinicians, technicians and patients will not be able to distinguish between Salbutamol and placebo, and will not know to what arm the patient was assigned at the time of the testing and the interpretation of the results.
Purpose
DIAGNOSTIC
Intervention Model
CROSSOVER
Model Details: Each group of patients and controls will be randomly assigned to two study arms as follows: patients in both arms will perform regular spirometry. After the first series of spirometry testing, patients in the first arm will receive bronchodilators as per bronchodilator response protocol (Salbutamol, 100 mcg, 4 puffs via spacer) and patients in the second arm will receive four puffs of placebo. After a waiting time of 15 minutes, spirometry will be repeated. Following the second spirometry testing those who received salbutamol will now receive placebo and those receiving placebo will receive Salbutamol. After a second period of 15 minutes, a third series of spirometry will be recorded.
