Brief Summary:
The primary objective of the study is to identify demographic and non-spirometric clinical features predictive of the asthma-COPD overlap population. The study aims to explore and identify characteristics of the Asthma-COPD Overlap Syndrome (ACOS) patient's clinical profile that enable clinical differentiation from subjects with a primary diagnosis of either asthma alone (without persistent obstruction) or COPD alone (without reversibility). The study is designed as a targeted medical history survey which consists of a 41-item questionnaire, which will be administered by a qualified health care practitioner at the time a subject's medical history is taken. The questionnaire has been developed to elicit specific details of the respiratory history, including the following: bronchodilator use, disease progression, variation in symptoms, atopic history, symptom triggers, vagal bias, burden of disease, symptom presentation, co morbidities and age of onset. In addition, demographic information, standard medical history, co morbidity and spirometric results will also be obtained and analyzed in conjunction with the questionnaire results. Approximately 1000 subjects are required for the study.

Arm Intervention/treatment
All Subjects
Approximately 1000 subjects with clinical diagnoses of asthma and/or COPD or clinical presentations suggestive of either or both will be included. Subjects will undergo spirometry assessments and also will be asked a series of questions by a qualified health care practitioner using a questionnaire containing 41 questions concerning their respiratory condition.
Procedure: Spirometry
Classification of respiratory diseases by Spirometry will be performed to differentiate subjects between Asthma only, ACOS, and COPD only. Spirometry obtained from measurements in the past 6 months is acceptable for purposes of this study. For subjects without spirometry in the past 6 months, spirometry will be performed to obtain pre- and post-bronchodilator Forced Expiratory Volume in one second (FEV1), Forced Vital Capacity (FVC) and reversibility

Other: ACOS clinical questionnaire
The 41-question questionnaire includes questions concerning the following: a) response to bronchodilator, b) disease progression, c) variations in symptom, d) atopic history, e) symptom triggers, f) vagal bias, g) burden of disease, h) symptom presentation, i) emotional aspects, and j) age of onset. In addition, two questions will capture patient perception of his/her respiratory disease and the physician's diagnosis




Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Summary of spirometry data: forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) and forced vital capacity (FVC) [ Time Frame: Day 1 ]
    FEV1 measures how much air a person can exhale during a forced breath in 1 second. FVC is the total amount of air exhaled during the FEV test. FEV1 and FVC were performed on Day 1 (pre- and post-bronchodilator) using spirometry. Spirometry results obtained within 6 months and were used for this study. For participants without spirometry in the past 6 months, spirometry was performed to obtain pre- and post-bronchodilator FEV1, FVC.

  2. Summary of spirometry data: Reversibility [ Time Frame: Day 1 ]
    Questionnaire designed to clinically differentiate participants with ACOS from patients who have either asthma alone (i.e. without persistent obstruction) or COPD alone (i.e., non-reversible). Spirometry results obtained within 6 months and were used for this study. For participants without spirometry in the past 6 months, spirometry was performed to obtain pre- and post-bronchodilator FEV1, FVC and reversibility.
