Abstract
Background: The management of COPD has been based on the premise of identifying problems that guide personalised treatment based on a multidimensional assessment, known as treatable traits. Exacerbation of COPD (ECOPD) results in physical and functional impairments, limitation of daily activities and negative impact on patients' quality of life and prognosis. In this context, identifying treatable traits in patients with ECOPD is essential to properly guide individualised patient care. There is a need to develop a performance-based toolkit to identify the main treatable traits of functioning in hospitalised patients with ECOPD.
Methods and analysis: This is a study protocol of a survey method observational study to develop a performance-based toolkit. The study will include the following steps: 1) definition of treatable traits by both physiotherapists who provide or have provided care to hospitalised patients with ECOPD on a regular basis, and patients who have experienced at least one ECOPD which required hospitalisation; 2) selection of the most appropriate measures (markers) for each treatable trait based on established criteria and a previous systematic review; and 3) implementation of the toolkit in a pilot/feasibility study with hospitalised patients with ECOPD.
Conclusion: The development of a feasible performance-based toolkit with the best markers for each key treatable trait of functioning in hospitalised patients with ECOPD will make it possible to create individualised patient care for the specific demands of these patients.
