Abstract
Over two-thirds of persons with COPD did not demonstrate acute bronchodilator responsiveness. The overall response was small and less than that considered as significant by ATS criteria. The overlap in FEV1 and FVC changes after bronchodilator among the groups makes it difficult to determine a threshold for separating them.
