摘要

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is the only disease among the 10 leading causes of death in the United States with a prevalence that has steadily increased over the past four decades and for which no effective therapy has been developed to substantially blunt its progressive course. COPD has climbed to become the fourth leading cause of death in the United States, leading to the deaths of more than 120,000 people each year. Healthcare expenses and loss of work because of this disease have been estimated to cost over $37 billion annually. COPD is traditionally identified by the finding of an irreversible chronic airflow limitation. This limitation is thought to be present (diagnosed and undiagnosed) in up to 50 million people in the United States (1).
