Chronic respiratory disease is one of the important causes of death in our country, and the public awareness rate is extremely low.

Chronic respiratory diseases, along with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, diabetes and cancer, are listed by the World Health Organization as the world's four major chronic diseases. Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and asthma are the most common chronic respiratory diseases, and the public awareness rate is extremely low.

The Report on Nutrition and Chronic Diseases of Chinese Residents (2015) shows that the mortality rate of chronic respiratory diseases in 2012 was 68/100,000. After suffering from cerebrovascular disease and cancer, it became the third cause of death in Chinese residents. The prevalence of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease was 9.9%. Previous survey data also showed that there are more than 30 million asthma patients in China.

"Respiratory diseases are very harmful to health, but the public knows very little about them." According to experts, behind the astonishing data, in addition to the patient's own chronic disease prevention and literacy, it is not enough to communicate with health education and related knowledge. The government's investment in and attention to chronic respiratory diseases is not enough. "Hypertension and diabetes have all been included in the national basic public health service project, but as of now, respiratory diseases have not been included."

Long-term cough, cough, shortness of breath after activity, alert to chronic respiratory diseases

Because the symptoms of chronic respiratory diseases are similar to those of ordinary cough, both chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and asthma are easily mistaken for the common cold. Especially for the elderly, as the function declines, it is natural to think that asthma is a sign of aging, and it is not known that life has been eroded by chronic respiratory diseases.

On the eve of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, the slow obstructive lung health propagandist Lang Yongzhen publicized the way of slow obstructive lung self-test to the public: 40 years old or older, if it meets the requirements of “long-term smoking, shortness of breath after activity, coughing and coughing for more than three months” Any one, you should go to the hospital for lung function tests to confirm whether you have developed chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.

Experts pointed out that due to factors such as awareness rate, many patients with chronic respiratory diseases failed to visit in time, resulting in "after death due to chronic respiratory diseases accounted for 12.32% of urban deaths, accounting for 15.75% of rural deaths" Data, "By 2020, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease may become one of the five most serious diseases in the world. We should focus on increasing the prevention and treatment of chronic respiratory diseases, expanding the scope of prevention and treatment, and protecting public health."
