Summary

This was an observational pilot study to examine the usefulness of an electronic sensor that monitors short-acting beta-agonist inhaled medication use. The goals of this study were to: 1) test the feasibility of using the inhaler sensor to measure worsening symptoms and exacerbations, 2) characterize physical activity in patients with COPD, and 3) examine whether environmental factors can be linked to mild exacerbations measured by the inhaler sensor.
