Changes in health related quality of life are being evaluated using three instruments: the SF-36, the St. George�s Respiratory Questionnaire, and the Quality of Well-Being Scale, the latter to calculate utility associated with different health states. Costs will be determined using utilization data on outpatient visits, medications, oxygen use, inpatient days, radiology tests, laboratory tests, and emergency room visits are being collected for the twelve months before and after surgery. Costs will be calculated according to VA and community standards.\n\nStatus:\n\nComplete.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'MALE', 'stdAges': ['CHILD', 'ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '75 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\nSevere COPD as defined by FEV1 of 20-30% predicted; marked hyperinflation with a residual volume of \\>165% predicted; 6-min walk greater than 600 ft; abstinence from cigarette smoking for 3-mths; absence of co-morbid illnesses that would significantly increase surgical risk, such as severe coronary artery disease\n\nExclusion Criteria:'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT00013156', 'briefTitle': 'Cost-Effectiveness of Lung Volume Reduction Surgery', 'organization': {'class': 'FED', 'fullName': 'VA Office of Research and Development'}, 'officialTitle': 'Cost-Effectiveness of Lung Volume Reduction Surgery', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': 'IIR 96-024'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'OTHER', 'label': 'Arm 1', 'interventionNames': ['Procedure: Effectiveness of Lung Reduction Therapy']}], 'interventions': [{'name': 'Effectiveness of Lung Reduction Therapy', 'type': 'PROCEDURE', 'armGroupLabels': ['Arm 1']}]}, 'contactsLocationsModule': {'locations': [{'zip': '98108', 'city': 'Seattle', 'state': 'Washington', 'country': 'United States', 'facility': 'VA Puget Sound Health Care System Seattle Division, Seattle, WA', 'geoPoint': {'lat': 47.60621, 'lon': -122.33207}}], 'overallOfficials': [{'name': 'Hugh F Huizenga, MD MPH', 'role': 'PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR', 'affiliation': 'VA Puget Sound Health Care System Seattle Division, Seattle, WA'}, {'name': 'Stephan D.
