Question

find out the names of five respiratory diseases like asthma bronchitis and related health issue also find out the ways for prevention of these diseases​

Answer 1

Answer:

Goal

Promote respiratory health through better prevention, detection, treatment, and education efforts.

Overview

Asthma1 and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)2 are significant public health burdens. Specific methods of detection, intervention, and treatment exist that may reduce this burden and promote health.

Asthma is a chronic inflammatory disorder of the airways characterized by episodes of reversible breathing problems due to airway narrowing and obstruction. These episodes can range in severity from mild to life threatening. Symptoms of asthma include wheezing, coughing, chest tightness, and shortness of breath. Daily preventive treatment can prevent symptoms and attacks and enable individuals who have asthma to lead active lives.

COPD is a preventable and treatable disease characterized by airflow limitation that is not fully reversible. The airflow limitation is usually progressive and associated with an abnormal inflammatory response of the lungs to noxious particles or gases (typically from exposure to cigarette smoke).4 Treatment can lessen symptoms and improve quality of life for those with COPD.

Several additional respiratory conditions and respiratory hazards, including infectious agents and occupational and environmental exposures, are covered in other areas of Healthy People 2020. Examples include tuberculosis, lung cancer, acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS), pneumonia, occupational lung disease, and smoking. Sleep Health is now a separate topic area of Healthy People 2020.

Understanding Respiratory Diseases

Asthma

The prevalence of asthma has increased since 1980. However, deaths from asthma have decreased since the mid-1990s. The causes of asthma are an active area of research and involve both genetic and environmental factors.

Risk factors for asthma currently being investigated include:

Having a parent with asthma

Sensitization to irritants and allergens

Respiratory infections in childhood

Overweight

Related Topic Areas

Access to Health Services

Educational and Community-Based Programs

Environmental Health

Health Communication and Health Information Technology

Older Adults

Asthma affects people of every race, sex, and age. However, significant disparities in asthma morbidity and mortality exist, particularly for low-income and minority populations. Populations with higher rates of asthma include:

Children

Women (among adults) and boys (among children)

African Americans

Puerto Ricans

People living in the northeastern United States

People living below the federal poverty level

Employees with certain exposures in the workplace

While there is currently no cure for asthma, there are diagnoses and treatment guidelines that are aimed at ensuring that all people with asthma live full and active lives.10

COPD

COPD is the 4th leading cause of death in the United States. In 2014, approximately 142,000 individuals died from COPD, and almost as many died from lung cancer (approximately 155,500) in the same year.11 In nearly 8 out of 10 cases, COPD is caused by exposure to cigarette smoke. Other environmental exposures (such as those in the workplace) may also cause COPD.

Genetic factors strongly influence the development of the disease. For example, not all smokers develop COPD.4 Quitting smoking may slow the progression of the disease. Women and men are affected equally, yet more women than men have died of COPD since 2000.

Emerging issues in the Respiratory Diseases topic area include:

• Assessing the impact of climate change (temperature extremes, the increased geographic span of allergens, and air quality) on asthma causation and exacerbations

• Increasing importance of indoor air quality as a cause of work-related respiratory symptoms and asthma in a service economy

• Increasing use of nanotechnology and resulting exposures to engineered nanoparticles

• Increasing exposures to respiratory hazards such as isocyanates used in “green” building materials

• Applying knowledge about gene-environment interactions and epigenetics to respiratory disease prevention

• Using knowledge about primary causes of asthma (determination of distinct asthma phenotypes) in developing effective prevention strategies, such as weight control and allergen avoidance

• Developing novel treatments to alter the progression of disease severity and, ultimately, to prevent asthma onset

• Using personalized medicine (tailoring treatment to a patient’s specific phenotype, genetics, and history)

• Identifying new respiratory hazards, as has been done during the last decade for diacetyl and other butter-flavoring chemicals; nylon, rayon, and polypropylene flock; and World Trade Center dust

• Improving COPD awareness and clinical case-finding in the population at large, and in the health care delivery system at the state and local levels

• Establishing a surveillance system for COPD
