PHAC Data Blog: COPD
COPD is a progressive condition that causes shortness of breath and cough. It is caused by prolonged exposure to irritants to the canadian pacific black lung disease typically smoking tobacco. The PHAC Data Blog is a great source to get short facts and the most recent data on different public health topics. This month, we are focusing on COPD.
Prevalence
COPD is a canadian pacific Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, debilitating condition which can be caused through long-term exposure to irritants to the lung, such as smoking tobacco. Shortness of breath, sputum and coughing are some of the symptoms. The disease typically affects older adults. Although the canadian pacific reactive airway disease isn't cure-able, treatment options can slow its progress and improve the symptoms and quality of life.
COPD is most common in people aged 65 and canadian pacific chronic obstructive pulmonary disease over, and its prevalence increases with the advancing years. COPD is the most frequent cause of deaths in Canada, and it causes considerable morbidity, mortality, canadian pacific black lung disease as well as health care utilization. In BC the burden of COPD is significant and is increasing as the population ages.
The prevalence of COPD is largely underestimated by the current data sources. This is probably due differences between survey methodologies and the different characteristics of the population. However, despite the disparity in prevalence estimates, it is evident that the disease is extremely prevalent.
In addition to assessing symptoms, a lung function test (Spirometry) can be utilized to determine and monitor COPD in primary health care settings. Spirometry could be used more often in the general population to diagnose and treat COPD. This would lower the expense of health care related to COPD.
Signs and symptoms
COPD is a chronic condition which causes obstruction of airflow in the lungs, which can cause symptoms like shortness of breath and coughing as well as sputum production. It is typically caused by a prolonged exposure to irritating gasses or particles, mostly smoking cigarettes. It can be difficult to diagnose, and it can be misdiagnosed as asthma or other illnesses with similar symptoms. It is also a complex disease, and there are four clinical forms or phenotypes of the disease: non-acute emphysema with chronic bronchitis. COPD-asthma is chronic with emphysema as well as acute COPD-mixed. The latter includes both emphysema and bronchitis.
Gershon and his coworkers conducted a study that revealed a significant number of people suffering from COPD were not diagnosed (10). Researchers found that COPD sufferers who weren't diagnosed had higher rates of emergency department visits and hospital visits than those without COPD. They were also more likely to smoke. The underdiagnosis is attributed to the ineffective use of spirometry and the misdiagnosis of nonspecific respiratory symptoms such as dyspnea. Patients with suspected COPD need to undergo post-bronchodilator screening and the use of anticholinergic medications can aid in improving lung function. This will enhance care for patients and reduce costs for healthcare systems.
Diagnosis
The early detection of COPD can decrease the frequency of exacerbations and slow down the progression of symptoms. COPD symptoms can be diagnosed by a physical and a history exam, as well as an easy breathing test called spirometry. In countries with high incomes, spirometry is used routinely as part of the assessment of chronic respiratory disorders, but in low- and middle-income countries it is generally not accessible. The importance of follow-up is to evaluate the effectiveness of treatment, inhaler technique and the effectiveness of the treatment regimen in reducing symptoms.
