Brief Summary:
Scientific research focuses on "eosinophilic inflammation" as it seems to guide the therapeutic regimen in patients with asthma and COPD. The primary objective of this prospective trial is to evaluate which parameter(s) best reflects eosinophilic inflammation by correlating tissue eosinophils (endobronchial biopsy, protected specimen brush sampling) with FeNO, peripheral blood eosinophils, and eosinophils in the bronchoalveolar lavage of patients with obstructive pulmonary disease.
Detailed Description:
This is a multicenter prospective trial. Enrollment will continue until 150 patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and 50 patients with severe asthma have been entered into this trial and have completed bronchoscopic evaluation. In this trial, the following parameters are to be evaluated:
* Blood eosinophils (absolute and relative)
* FeNO
* Eosinophils in bronchoalveolar lavage
* Tissue eosinophilia (protected specimen brush sampling, endobronchial biopsy)
