Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary Prevalence of PH Prevalence of PH as defined by ESC/ERS guidelines (mean pulmonary arterial pressure =25 mmHg, assessed by right-heart catheterization) among the subgroup of COPD GOLD III and IV patients. At baseline No
Secondary Quality of life Explorative data analysis to assess correlation between quality of life and PH, by comparison of COPD patients with and without PH and a reference group of patients with only PAH. One year No
