Residual reversibility in COPD patients already on long-acting bronchodilator: The OscilloRevers Study.

Background: Dyspnea is a complex symptom of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) which is not strongly correlated with lung function measures. Long-acting bronchodilators (LAB) may reduce this dyspnea, but some patients report persistent chronic dyspnea despite this treatment. This study aims to assess residual reversibility and clinical response after short-acting bronchodilator (SAB) in COPD patients already treated by LAB and reporting persistent dyspnea.
