Abstract
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a common illness associated with major morbidity and high mortality throughout the world. It is the fourth leading cause of death in the United States1 and is projected to rank fifth by 2020 in terms of burden of disease worldwide, according to a study
by the World Bank and World Health Organization. Yet COPD is relatively unknown to the public and often ignored by health policy makers and government officials.
