About this trial
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), , secondary to smoking, is a major public health issue with very high direct and indirect costs. The impact on the health system of undiagnosed patients, up to 70% of patients, is increasingly documented. However, systematic spirometry screening remains controversial among smokers in the absence of data to link the detection of new patients with improved management and clinical events and health goals. More generally, there is little data on the evolution of patients in real life once they have entered the care system.
The premise is that with systematic screening in general medicine, it is possible to identify the evolution of newly diagnosed COPD patients, to distinguish the different possible evolutions according to the initial phenotype and the management.

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
1-year adverse evolution
1-year adverse evolution defined by a composite criterion associating: \- Occurrence of an additional exacerbation defined by any event requiring the use of the care system (visit to the doctor, emergencies, or hospitalization, for respiratory aggravation) with prescription of antibiotics or systemic steroids AND/OR \- Increased dyspnea by 1 point on the MMRC dyspnea score AND/OR \- CAT\> 10 or 2 points increase on CAT symptom scores
Secondary outcomes
Adverse evolution
\- Occurrence of an additional exacerbation defined by any event requiring the use of the care system (visit to the doctor, emergencies, or hospitalization, for respiratory aggravation) with prescription of antibiotics or systemic steroids AND/OR \- Increased dyspnea by 1 point on the MMRC dyspnea score AND/OR \- CAT\> 10 or 2 points increase on CAT symptom scores
Exacerbation
Occurrence of an additional exacerbation defined by any event requiring the use of the care system (visit to the doctor, emergencies, or hospitalization, for respiratory aggravation) with prescription of antibiotics or systemic steroids
