Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Main Objective: A change in the FEV1 parameter (Forced Expiratory Pressure in 1 Second) value in an acute broncholysis testing (pre-brochnolysis versus post-broncholysis) is supposed to distinguish between COPD and asthmatic patients. The aim of this study is to compare the effects of a dual bronchodilator (glycopyrronium 43 µg / indacaterol 85 µg) with a standard short-acting bronchodilator (salbutamol) on changes in the FEV1 values. ;Secondary Objective: Not applicable;Primary end point(s): change in the postbronchodilator FEV1 in comparison to the baseline measurement ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: data collected during patient visits at day 0 and day 1
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Secondary end point(s): change in the postbronchodilator %FEV1 predicted in comparison to the baseline measurement ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: data collected during patient visits at day 0 and day 1
