COPD

We are there for you when breathing isn’t easy anymore.

A lung disease that is affecting more and more people: COPD

COPD stands for “chronic obstructive pulmonary disease”. Chronic obstruction of the bronchial tubes is typical for COPD, which can go hand-in-hand with a distension of the pulmonary tissue (pulmonary emphysema). COPD is an umbrella term for different clinical conditions with similar complaints. Typical COPD symptoms are shortness of breath, chronic cough, sputum and restricted physical performance.

Why you should take COPD seriously

COPD is a lung disease that is on the rise. In terms of diagnosed cases, COPD is the second most common lung disease in the UK, after asthma. Around 2% of the whole population – 4.5% of all people aged over 40 – live with diagnosed COPD (source: British Lung Foundation). Smokers in particular should look out for alarm signals - shortness of breath, cough and sputum. You should also see a lung specialist regarding a spirometry test for COPD

We at PARI have plenty of experience with diseases like COPD. We can support you with our tried and tested nebuliser devices. This can help you to manage your COPD better and improve your quality of life.
