aMono long-acting bronchodilator includes treatment with a LAMA or LABA. ICS/long-acting bronchodilator includes treatment with ICS and a LAMA or LABA. Dual long-acting bronchodilator includes treatment with a LAMA and a LABA. Triple therapy is treatment with ICS, a LAMA and a LABA.
bPatients rated how difficult each activity was for them to perform on a three-point scale: 1=much difficulty, 2=some difficulty, 3=no difficulty. If patients did not perform an activity (either for health reasons or by choice), the item is not included in the mean for that domain.
