Uncontrolled status had a great predictive value for adverse outcomes with 3-fold higher risk of an emergency room visit for an exacerbation, a 3.4-fold increased risk of an ambulatory exacerbation and a 4-fold increased risk of hospitalization during the next 6 months. These results suggest that lack of control is a useful warning sign that should prompt investigation of the causes and intervention in order to minimize the short-term risk of exacerbations.</p><p id="par0125" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Control is a term frequently used to describe a status in which the disease has a minimal impact on the health status of the patient and the prognosis is the best possible. Intuitively, when a chronic disease is uncontrolled it should require more careful evaluation and action taking to improve the symptoms and/or prognosis.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0195"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">17,18</span></a> This concept has been very well established in asthma<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0120"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span></a> but has been elusive in COPD for a variety of reasons, mainly because of a lack of control standard. Since COPD is defined as a chronic, progressive, and non fully reversible airflow limitation, control cannot be defined as the normalization of lung function and disappearance of symptoms and exacerbations. Instead, we need to define a tool that includes some easy to obtain clinical characteristics with meaningful thresholds adjusted for severity, that allow the identification of “uncontrolled” patients and which has prognostic value for relevant outcomes. Control in COPD was initially defined as including two dimensions: impact and stability,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0135"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">5</span></a> and the criteria were refined and validated in subsequent prospective studies.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0140"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">6,8,19,20</span></a></p><p id="par0130" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The criteria selected are easy to obtain at each clinical visit and basically consist in variables that patients should be questioned about, such as the level of dyspnea, sputum production and characteristics, the level of physical activity and the use of rescue medication, in addition to the history of previous moderate or severe exacerbations.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0215"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">21</span></a> Using the thresholds derived from previous studies,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0205"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">19</span></a> it has been demonstrated that control status is a good predictor of long-term outcomes,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0150"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">8,19,20</span></a> and that control evaluation based on clinical data is a better predictor than the definition of control based on CAT scores.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0205"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">19,20</span></a> Therefore, we used these clinical criteria in the current analysis.</p><p id="par0135" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The last revision of the GOLD strategic document separated, for the first time, the recommendations for initial treatment of COPD and changes in treatment based on a reassessment of the patients in subsequent visits.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0115"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">1</span></a> In this context, the control evaluation can be a useful tool to reassess the clinical status of the patients and their future risks. A previous study using the same criteria of control demonstrated that the control tool is more sensitive to changes in the clinical status of the patient than changes in phenotype, the level of risk according to the Spanish COPD guidelines,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0220"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">22</span></a> or the GOLD A-D classification frequently used to guide therapy.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0145"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">7</span></a> In addition, changes in control status were clinically relevant because they resulted in changes in health status over a period of only 3 months.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0145"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">7</span></a> However, the importance of the evaluation of control status at each clinical visit was not demonstrated. In this study, we observed that the control status of the patients frequently changes in subsequent clinical visits separated by 6 months, and more importantly, after an uncontrolled patient visit, the risk of having a moderate or severe exacerbation in the following 6 months is increased by 3–4-fold according to the type of episode. This increased risk justifies the use of control evaluation as a warning sign to foster more careful evaluation of the patients and the adoption of therapeutic measures according to the results of these investigations. In contrast, if the patient fulfills the criteria of control during a clinical visit, we may be quite confident that the risk of an adverse outcome during the next months is low. Therefore, the control status could be used to reduce or extend the time period between routine follow-up visits, with uncontrolled patients probably requiring more frequent appointments compared to controlled patients.</p><p id="par0140" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Regarding the limitations of the present study, it is important to consider that control status does not provide any specific diagnosis; a patient may be uncontrolled for a variety of reasons. The uncontrolled status is only an alert to take action but does not tell us what action to take. However, the control tool can be an excellent reminder to the clinician about the questions that COPD patients must be asked at each clinical visit and provide a simple prognostic tool. Only one quarter of the population were women, so extrapolation of the results to women must be made with caution.</p><p id="par0145" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The results of the current study are in agreement with those of previous studies demonstrating the predictive value of control status. The results obtained in our study highlight the significantly increased risk of moderate or severe exacerbations during the following 6 months in patients classified as uncontrolled. If these results are confirmed in other cohorts, control criteria should be incorporated into clinical practice as a simple to use tool to help reassess COPD patients at each follow-up visit.</p></span><span id="sec0065" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="sect0130">Authors’ contributions</span><p id="par0150" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Conceptualization: MM, VC, AK, DBP.
