Abstract

Diagnosis and management of COPD are underpinned by strong scientific evidence and local guidelines are available to guide decision making. However, previous studies have suggested underdiagnosis and misdiagnosis of COPD in primary care. We describe our experience in case-finding from the RADICALS© (Review of Airway Dysfunction and Interdisciplinary Community-based care in Adult Long-term Smokers) trial in Australian general practices.
