Abstract: Extract Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a heterogeneous respiratory disease caused mainly by cigarette smoking in Western countries. COPD is usually progressive and significantly impact patients’ quality of life. Breathlessness, cough, and sputum production are the most common symptoms and can acutely exacerbate into potentially fatal events.
