dc.description.abstractFrom recent statistics (79,59) it has been concluded that COPD is the most common lung disease in the United States affecting almost 16 million people. The mortality is rising, COPD is the fourth most common cause of death in USA after myocardial infarctions, cancer and stroke (91). COPD is clearly under diagnosed in the early stages (101).
