How do I complete COPD reviews via Questionnaire?

The COPD Questionnaires work in a similar way to the Asthma Control Questionnaires...

1. Reports identify patients who may be suitable for review via questionnaire
2. Patients are sent a questionnaire which covers everything that may be need to complete a review
3. Answers are interrogated by the system to identify those who definitely need a review appointment and those who might be appropriate for notes based review

Sending out COPD Questionnaires

There are two options for sending out COPD questionnaires:

1. Patients who are due to be invited for their review now or soon
2. All patients

Processing COPD Questionnaires

Questionnaires should be actioned and filed to the notes. The following day they will then drop into the following reports:

Patients will only be identified as appropriate for a notes based review if the following are true:

• MRC score is 1 or 2
• CAT score <10
• No COPD admissions in the last 12m
• COPD Exacerbations <3
• Patient is happy with how they are currently managing their COPD

To use a protocol to help review the answers, go to the Recall Overview and click on the COPD button:

Pick the option to "Process Completed

The protocol will recommend coding a COPD review and informing the patient:

The option "Code COPD Review and Inform patient" will add a narrative to explain why the COPD review has been coded and bring up a preset to inform the patient. If the patients need other reviews, the message will ask the patient to contact the practice to arrange those.
