MATERIALS AND METHODS: Data from participants of the chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) Assessment in Primary Care To Identify Undiagnosed Respiratory Disease and Exacerbation study who had baseline pre- and postbronchodilator (BD) spirometry were used to assess the pre-BD results ability to predict post-BD obstruction, defined as forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1)/forced vital capacity (FVC)
