    This document discusses chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), including risk factors, signs and symptoms, pathophysiology, treatments, medications, nursing diagnoses, and interventions. Key risk factors for COPD include smoking, air pollution, and family history. Signs include dyspnea, cough, and sputum production. COPD involves progressive airflow limitation due to lung inflammation and damage. Treatments focus on smoking cessation, medications, exercise, and vaccinations. Common nursing diagnoses for patients with COPD are risk for injury, impaired physical mobility, and ineffective health management.
