Respiratory Diseases: Causes, Symptoms & Preventive Measures

When we are healthy, we take our breathing for granted, never fully appreciating that our lungs are essential organs for life. But when our lung health is impaired we realise that nothing else but our breathing is what really matters. That is the painful reality for those suffering from lung disease – a condition that affects people of all ages in every corner of the world. Lung diseases kill millions and cause suffering to millions more. Threats to our lung health are everywhere, and they start at an early age when we are most vulnerable. Fortunately, many of these threats are avoidable and their consequences treatable. By acting now, we can save ourselves and many others.

The respiratory disease causes an immense health burden. It is estimated that worldwide 235 million people suffer from asthma, more than 200 million people have chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), 65 million endure moderate-to-severe COPD, 1–6% of the adult population (more than 100 million people) experience sleep-disordered breathing, 9.6 million people develop tuberculosis (TB) annually, millions live with Pulmonary Hypertension and more than 50 million people struggle with occupational lung diseases, totalling more than 1 billion people suffering from chronic respiratory conditions. At least 2 billion people are exposed to the toxic effects of biomass fuel consumption, 1 billion are exposed to outdoor air pollution and 1 billion are exposed to tobacco smoke. Each year, 4 million people die prematurely from chronic respiratory disease.1

The scenario in India is equally worrisome. Some of the Indian cities are currently featured among the most polluted cities in the world and we are seeing the ill effects of it. In Assam, cigarette smoking is very much prevalent and rising pollution is leading to many respiratory diseases.

➪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.3, 4, 5

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.

➪Provide persons with symptoms of respiratory illness with information on preventing spread of illness by practicing respiratory hygiene and cough etiquette, which includes the following:

Cover the nose and mouth when coughing or sneezing

Use tissues to contain respiratory droplets or secretions

Throw away used tissues in the nearest garbage bag after use

Perform hand hygiene (e.g., hand washing with soap and water, or alcohol hand gel) after having contact with respiratory secretions and contaminated objects/materials

When possible, provide residents with the materials to adhere to respiratory hygiene and cough etiquette:

Provide tissues and a container for used tissue disposal (e.g., paper or plastic bag)

Provide personal dispenser of alcohol hand gel; where sinks are available, ensure that supplies for hand washing (i.e., soap, disposable towels) are consistently available

Separate sick persons and close contacts from other residents until 24 hours after the respiratory illness symptoms are gone. If possible, put sick persons in a separate room or in a separate section of the evacuation center away from other residents who are not sick. If this is not possible, encourage persons with respiratory illness to stay at least 3-6 feet away from those not providing direct care and support.
