Trial overview

Official title: Administrative Database Study on the Impact of Adherence to Drug Therapy in COPD Patients Treated with Tiotropium as Monotherapy or Co-Administered with ADVAIR in Quebec
Trial description: This will be an observational study that will utilize pharmaceutical and medical claims from the Quebec Provincial Health Insurance administrative databases. Patients diagnosed with chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases (COPD) between January 01, 2001 and March 31, 2011 and have been treated with an anticholinergic (tiotropium or ipratropium bromide) alone or in combination with salbutamol will be selected in the COPD cohort. Patients will be followed from their entry in the cohort through March 31, 2011, death or withdrawal from the insurance plan whichever occurs first. The study assesses the association between adherence and COPD related health care utilization in COPD patients treated with tiotropium alone or co-administered with fluticasone propionate/salmeterol combination in a single inhaler (FSC).Adherence to treatment will be determined on the basis of the Medication Possession Ratio and Persistence. Exacerbations will be defined as use of oral corticosteroids and antibiotics, emergency room visits and hospitalizations related to COPD. Health care utilization will include medication use, visits to physicians and clinics and hospitalizations.
