Summary

This study followed 661 Italian adults with moderate to severe COPD who were prescribed the Trimbow inhaler. Researchers measured changes in health status using the COPD Assessment Test (CAT) and how well patients stuck to their medication over 12 months. The goal was to see if the treatment improves daily life and adherence in real-world settings.
