Recruitment Details
Key information relevant to the recruitment process for the overall study, such as dates of the recruitment period and locations
First patient enrolled: 06 January 2010; Last patient completed: 17 November 2010; Twelve centres across 5 countries participated in this study: Canada (2), Denmark (3), The Netherlands (2), Romania (2) and Ukraine (3).

Pre-Assignment Details
Significant events and approaches for the overall study following participant enrollment, but prior to group assignment
Tiotropium maintenance therapy and reliever medication were commenced at screening, except for patients on inhaled corticosteroids (ICS, ICS/LABA) who were required to stop these at enrolment and commence on tiotropium and reliever medication at the same time. These patients received tiotropium for a period of at least 3 weeks before screening.

Population Description
Explanation of how the number of participants for analysis was determined. Includes whether analysis was per protocol, intention to treat, or another method. Also provides relevant details such as imputation technique, as appropriate.
The efficacy analysis set for each outcome measure includes those patients who received at least one dose of investigational product and for whom a baseline and at least one post-randomisation measurement is available for that outcome measure. Patients were analysed by to randomised treatment in accordance with the intention to treat principle.
