The Body Mass Index, Airflow Obstruction, Dyspnea and Exercise Capacity (BODE) Index in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease for Saudi Population
نویسندگان
چکیده
COPD is a slowly progressive disorder defined by the Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD) as “A common preventable and treatable disease characterized by persistent airflow limitation that is usually progressive and associated with an enhanced chronic inflammatory response in the airway and the lungs to noxious particles or gases. Exacerbation and comorbidities contribute to the severity in individual patients” [1].

The Significance of BODE (BMI, Obstruction, Dyspnea, Exercise) Index in Patients with Mustard Lung
Introduction: Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) secondary to sulfur mustard exposure, known as mustard lung, is an important late pulmonary complication. The BODE (Body mass index, Obstruction, Dyspnea, and Exercise) index has been established as a valuable tool for determining the adverse consequences of COPD. The aim of this study was to evaluate the role of the BODE index in pat...

متن کاملThe modified BODE index: validation with mortality in COPD.
Peak oxygen uptake (V'(O(2))) remains the gold standard measurement of exercise capacity and has been associated with survival. A modified BODE (body mass index, airflow obstruction, dyspnoea, exercise capacity) index replacing the 6-min walk distance (6MWD) with V'(O(2)) as % predicted (mBODE%) has been developed and found to have excellent correlation with the conventional BODE index. The obj...
متن کاملMonitoring disease progression in COPD patients: one step beyond!
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is defined by persistent airflow limitation that is usually progressive [1], and its severity has long been classified using forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1) % predicted. Although levels of FEV1 were often reported to predict mortality, the observation that other pulmonary and extrapulmonary variables also predicted mortality led to the develop...
متن کاملHigh value of combined serum C-reactive protein and BODE score for mortality prediction in patients with stable COPD.
INTRODUCTION Both BODE score (body mass index, degree of airflow obstruction, functional dyspnea, and exercise capacity) and serum C-reactive protein (CRP) are validated predictors of mortality in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The aim of this study is to investigate the predictive value of combined serum CRP and BODE score for mortality in COPD patients. PATIENTS...
