Overview
Brief Summary
The study aims to explore the effect of tiotropium on airway remodeling by using Endobronchial Optical Coherence Tomography (EB-OCT). We enrolled patients with GOLD I stage COPD. All the patients will be divided into four groups randomly to receive SABA as needed with or without regular use of tiotropium. Changes of airway morphology (accessed by EB-OCT), pulmonary function, QOL, and SABA usage will be obtained.

Arms & Interventions
Tiotropium (0-12 month) + SABA as needed
* During the 2 years treatment phase patients will be administered with tiotropium bromide (Spiriva) capsule 18μg once daily from baseline to the 12th months. * Any long acting bronchodilator will not be used from the 12 to 24 months. * Salbutamol sulphate aerosol (Ventolin) will be administered as concomitant medication treatment when exacerbation occurs.
Intervention: Tiotropium Inhalation Powder [Spiriva] 0.018mg
Tiotropium (0-12 month) + SABA as needed
