“…These two measures have been emphasized in the symptom assessment of COPD patients following the revision of GOLD 2011 [3]. It has been reported that CAT can appropriately evaluate disease worsening [20] and progress in rehabilitation [21]. A close correlation between the mMRC dyspnea scale score and prognosis has also been reported [22].…”

“…7 The chronic obstructive pulmonary disease assessment test (CAT) is designed for assessment of COPD impact on health status, it is simple questionnaires that cover daily symptoms; It include three parts (symptoms, activities and affection). [8][9][10][11][12] Identified items of CAT score include dyspnea, cough, expectoration and wheeze, also; systemic symptoms of fatigue and sleep disturbance. Additional indicators included limitations in daily activities, social life, emotional health and feeling in control with the use of rescue medication.…”

Background: Objectives to assess the effectiveness of high frequency chest wall oscillation (HFCWO) vest system and Flutter devices in the treatment of patients with AECOPD, and to compare the efficacy of HFCWO vest system versus Flutter devices.Methods: We conducted an interventional study on 108 out of 129 patients presented with AECOPD, recruited from two-university hospitals. They were classified into three groups, HFCWO group (n=37), Flutter group (n=35), and control group (n=36). The HFCWO group and Flutter group were treated with AECOPD medications in addition to either HFCWO or Flutter physiotherapy, three sessions per week, for four weeks, while control group was treated by medications only. All patients were evaluated before and after treatment by spirometry, ABG, CAT score, and the BODE index.Results: Post treatment assessment for both HFCWO and Flutter groups demonstrated that most of spirometric indices (FEV1%, FVC%, FEV1/FVC %), oxygenations parameters (PaO2, SaO2 %) and CAT score, were significantly improved (p < 0.05). The level of perceived dyspnea decreased significantly, walking distance during 6-MWT was extended significantly, the BODE index and MMRC scale decreased significantly. While in control group only oxygenations parameters (PaO2, SaO2 %) was mildly improved. No statistical significant difference was found between vest HFCWO and Flutter device in all measured post treatment parameters (p > 0.05).Conclusions: Both vest HFCWO and Flutter device are highly effective in treatment of patients with AECOPD in terms of improvement in ventilatory function and oxygenation parameters with better exercise tolerance.
