January 22, 2019
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. In 2004, it was the fourth most
common cause of death in the world, and it is projected to be the third most common cause of death by 2030. COPD is characterized by
diminished lung function, and is often accompanied by respiratory symptoms including chronic productive cough, wheezing, and dyspnea
(shortness of breath). The most prominent risk factor for COPD worldwide is cigarette smoking. COPD is more common in men and the
elderly,
driven by long-term exposure to risk factors and the irreversible progression of COPD over time.
