COPD is a worldwide chronic airway disease characterized with the airflow limitation in spirometry and it is expected to become the 3rd leading causes of death in 2020. Total deaths from COPD are projected to increase by more than 30% in the next 10 years unless urgent action is taken to reduce the underlying risk factors. WHO suggested the strategies to control chronic respiratory diseases in the aspect of surveillance, primary, secondary and third prevention and each country develops their own strategies for controlling chronic respiratory diseases. In this review, national policies and strategies of USA, UK, Filand, and Italy to prevent and control COPD are overviewed and discussed.
