Abstract

Abstract:

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a progressive inflammatory disorder characterized by persistent airflow limitation and is now the third leading cause of death globally. COPD imposes a escalating socioeconomic burden, poses a major challenge to global public health. Therefore, strengthening the prevention and control of COPD is of paramount importance. This review focuses on COPD modifiable risk factors, examines the heterogeneity of prevention and control strategies across economic strata with the aim of informing context-specific resource allocation in settings at different levels of economic development.

Key words: Pulmonary disease, chronic obstructive, Risk factors, Socioeconomic factors, Review literature as topic
