Sample sizes for trials using the different scores were proposed. MCIDs of absolute change were more stable than using relative change from baseline.Conclusion An improvement of ∼10 mm on a 100-mm VAS is likely to be clinically meaningful across commonly used measures of chronic breathlessness (current intensity, unpleasantness, and average, best and worst intensity over the past 24 h) to evaluate clinical benefit and effects in therapeutic trials.This cohort study determined clinically important differences for current intensity and unpleasantness and the average, best and worst intensity of the past 24 h of chronic breathlessness, which is important for the design of therapeutic trials https://bit.ly/3amslss %U //www.qdcxjkg.com/content/erj/56/2/1902202.full.pdf
