Abstract

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) represents a significant global health challenge characterized by progressive airflow limitation and respiratory symptoms. This abstract explores effective strategies and treatment options aimed at preventing COPD onset and managing its progression. Key preventive measures include smoking cessation interventions, environmental pollution control, and early detection through spirometry screening. Therapeutic approaches encompass bronchodilators, inhaled corticosteroids, and pulmonary rehabilitation to alleviate symptoms and improve quality of life. Emerging therapies targeting specific inflammatory pathways and promoting lung function preservation offer promising avenues for disease management. Comprehensive management strategies integrating prevention, early diagnosis, and personalized treatment are essential in mitigating the burden of COPD on healthcare systems and improving patient outcomes.
