To help you monitor your COPD regularly click the COPD Assessment Test (CAT) below. The CAT is a validated tool, made up of eight simple questions that explore how COPD impacts your daily life, and how this might change over time.

Each question is scored from 0-5. Your total score will give your doctor or nurse an idea of how much your COPD affects your daily life, and provides an easy way to track your condition from one visit to the next.

It’s useful to bring a completed CAT the next time you see your healthcare professional. This can help guide the conversation and ensure you get the most from your visit.
