The primary goal of COPD therapy is the prevention of exacerbations and clinical deterioration. To achieve these goals, treatment adherence (i.e. taking medication as prescribed) is important. However, non-adherence (not taking medication as prescribed) is common in COPD and can be affected by lifestyle changes or use of multiple inhalers. The effects of Trimbow® on patients' health related quality of life, adherence and clinical outcomes have not been assessed in a UK real-world setting. This non-interventional trial aims to collect data from COPD patients under routine care over a 6 month period, for whom their doctors has decided to prescribe Trimbow® as per the authorised indication. We plan to investigate any changes in quality of life, as well as changes in lung function and the need for any additional therapy over 6 months. We also plan to investigate the adherence or reasons for non-adherence to Trimbow® as used in everyday routine.
