Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Age of the Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) Patients at the Time of COPD Diagnosis - US
Time Frame: At index date of cohort entry (baseline; time of COPD diagnosis).
Age of the chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients at the time of COPD diagnosis from the United States (US) IBM MarketScan was reported by groups stratified according to their COPD diagnosis times (Before versus after the approval of Tiotropium + Olodaterol in 2015).
At index date of cohort entry (baseline; time of COPD diagnosis).
Age of the Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) Patients at the Time of COPD Diagnosis - UK
Time Frame: At index date of cohort entry (baseline; time of COPD diagnosis).
Age of the chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients at the time of COPD diagnosis from the the United Kingdom (UK) CPRD GOLD database was reported by groups stratified according to their COPD diagnosis times (Before versus after the approval of Tiotropium + Olodaterol in 2015).
At index date of cohort entry (baseline; time of COPD diagnosis).
Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) at the Time of COPD Diagnosis
Time Frame: At index date of cohort entry (baseline; time of COPD diagnosis).
The Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) was a method of categorizing comorbidities of patients based on the International Classification of Diseases diagnosis. The CCI score ranged from 0 (better outcome) to 21 (worse outcome). The higher the score, the more fragile/ill the patient was.
