Purpose
The study does not involve testing of a drug (no treatment intervention). The study will will use spirometry (breathing tests) in subjects of 40 years of age and older with a history of cigarette smoking with chronic bronchitis to check their disease status and whether or not they have COPD. Also, study subjects will be asked to complete a questionnaire (to answer a list of questions on paper).

- FEV1 and FVC, Pre-bronchodilator Spirometry Measures [ Time Frame: Day 1 of a 1-day study ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Participants self-administered a bronchodilator (albuterol) in the presence of trained site staff 15 to 30 minutes prior to pulmonary function test. FEV1 is the volume of air expelled from the lungs in 1 second, and FVC is the volume of air that can forcibly be blown out after full inspiration).
- FEV1 Percent Predicted and FEV1/FVC Percent Predicted, Pre-bronchodilator Spirometry Measures [ Time Frame: Day 1 of a 1-day study ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Participants self-administered a bronchodilator (albuterol) in the presence of trained site staff 15 to 30 minutes prior to pulmonary function test.

- Post-bronchodilator Reversibility Measures [ Time Frame: Day 1 of a 1-day study ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]To assess the reversibility in COPD, a bronchodilator was administered before performing another round of tests for comparison. This is commonly referred to as a reversibility test for the likelihood for a participant to revert to their baseline spirometric values or a post-bronchodilator test (Post BD) and is an important part in diagnosing asthma versus COPD, particularly since reversibility is not observed in the latter case. This differentiates COPD from other diseases.
