What does the medical abbreviation COPD mean?

Answer 1

It's a garbage-pail lung disease term meaning "Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease".
(COPD)-Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease COPD includes emphysema and chronic bronchitis. Most COPD patients have both. • In Chronic Bronchitis, airflow may be limited by narrowed airways that get tight, swollen, and filled with mucus. These changes limit airflow into and out of the lungs. • In Emphysema, the tiny air sacs (alveoli) in your lungs are damaged. Like old balloons, they get overstretched. They break down. Old air gets trapped in the air sacs. So there's no room for new air to get in.
Its Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease also known as Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease.
