| Abstract | Introduction: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a major cause of illness and death. Objective: To develop a screening tool of pneumonia in patients with COPD. Method: This research was Retrospective Cohort Study. The study was conducted in patients with COPD during 1 January 2010 until 31 March 2013. Results: There were 428 patients participated in the study. Patients were 127 pneumonia (29.67%). The risk factors associated with the pneumonia from binary logistic regression analysis age >65 years, Modified Medical Research Council Dyspnoea Score > 3, Hypertension, Previous history of COPD exacerbations and inhaled corticosteroid use > 6 months. Was developed by integrating the risk factors and, the cut-off point for pneumonia prediction is 6 points sensitivity 70.90 percent, specificity 93.70 percent and Area under the Curve of the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC curve) 85.10 percent. Conclusions: This screening is a tool pneumonia in patients with a COPD. Patients with scores 6 points or over should be forward for pneumonia diagnosis. |
