Abstract:
0.05).FVC increased significantly in week 6 and 12(t=2.762,P =0.008;t=2.255,P =0.029,respectively).There was no statistical significance in FEV_1/FVC between two groups.IC increased significantly in week 6 and 12(t =3.204,P =0.002;t =3.109,P=0.003,respectively).Conclusion Inhaling tiotropium increases IC in patients with stable COPD.As lung function targets judging limit extent of airflow in patients with COPD,FEV_1/FVC and FEV_1(%)are not sensitive in evaluating therapeutic effect of bronchodilators.IC is more reliable than other targets in evaluating therapeutic effect of bronchodilators.
