RESUMO
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a common chronic respiratory disease that seriously threatens people's health. It significantly affects the quality of life of patients and presents an overwhelming economic burden on the governmental perspectives, which makes COPD a major public health issue in China. In this paper, we propose some methods that can help to accelerate the implementation of the Healthy China Strategy and promote the change of people's attitudes towards COPD from disease-centered to health-centered. Those methods are composed of many important aspects including the concepts of"population medicine", the improvement of the national health policy for COPD, the consolidation of the original troika strategy of respiratory disciplines and the high-quality implementation of the three major national projects, aiming to inspire people to participate in the six-in-one work system of dealing with COPD encompassing the health promotion, the prevention, the diagnosis, the control, the treatment, and the rehabilitation.
