Registered outcomes2

Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryTotal Number of Healthcare Visits1 yearDetermine differences in healthcare visits which include all-cause and respiratory related, acute care outpatient visits, emergency department visits, and hospitalizations between groups
SecondaryTotal With Diagnosis of COPD and/or Asthma Consistent With Spirometry Results1 yeardetermine differences in the accuracy of diagnosis between groups

Each outcome the trial posted results for, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.

TypeOutcomeTime framePopulationUnitsMeasured as
PRIMARYTotal Number of Healthcare Visits1 yearIntention to treat. Once randomized, patients were included in the analysis.ParticipantsCOUNT_OF_PARTICIPANTS
SECONDARYTotal With Diagnosis of COPD and/or Asthma Consistent With Spirometry Results1 year
This analysis was only done for patients who had clear yes or no diagnosis accuracy from spirometry. This also excluded those did not have missing spirometry either due to withdraw or lost to follow-up. Two patients with yes or no diagnosis accuracy from spirometry withdrew, but they were either qualified for Correct initial diagnosis or Ever remove wrong initial diagnosis and thus lead to no missing in this table.
