Abstract：Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD)is a common chronic respiratory disease characterized by persistent respiratory symptoms and airflow limitation,with high morbidity,disability and mortality.According to the World Health Organization's prediction,COPD will become the third leading chronic diease causing deaths around the world by 2030,imposing substantial economic burden.Due to the insidious onset of early COPD,insufficient understanding of clinical symptoms such as cough and sputum in some COPD patients,and low popularity rate of pulmonary function test,the proportion of early clinical diagnosis and effective treatment of COPD is extremely low,which delays the optimal time for diagnosis and treatment of COPD.Early diagnosis and treatment can delay the progression of pulmonary function decline in COPD patients,reduce the times of acute exacerbation and the hospitalization rate,and improve the quality of life in early COPD patients.Therefore,it is necessary to strengthen the early screening of COPD,so as to achieve early diagnosis,early intervention and early treatment.In this paper,the relevant literature at home and abroad in recent years is summarized,and the research progress of early screening methods for COPD is reviewed.
