Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality within the Veterans Healthcare Administration (VHA) and is frequently under-diagnosed. We developed the Veterans Airflow Screening Questionnaire (VAFOSQ) to improve the identification of Veterans with airflow obstruction (AFO), the most commonly used criterion for the diagnosis of COPD.We created an initial survey with 78 variables that have been associated with AFO. A total of 825 patients in 3 primary care clinics performed spirometry after bronchodilator administration and completed the initial survey. Best sets regression was used to build a model that predicted AFO optimally. A total of 195 of 825 (23.3%) patients had AFO and 7 items positively predicted AFO. When the questionnaire score was greater than 25, the VAFOSQ accurately identified AFO with an area under the receiver operating curve of 0.72. In a prospective validation cohort of 376 participants, the positive predictive value was 32% and negative predictive value 81%. The VAFOSQ is a reliable and valid instrument for the identification of veterans at risk for AFO who would benefit from further evaluation with spirometry and assessment for COPD. The VAFOSQ is straightforward to use and can be easily self-administered and self-scored enabling widespread application within the VHA. |
