Abstract

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), characterized by airflow limitation, has become a major cause of morbidity and mortality in developed countries. In Latin America, Colombia and Northern Santander, epidemiological data are scarce. The purpose of the basic research project for this article was to carry out a study aimed at measuring the prevalence of this disease and associated symptoms such as chronic cough and dyspnea in patients over 45 years of age, in the municipalities that make up the province of Pamplona, Norte de Santander, through the review of the individual health service provision records (RIPS), of the health providing entities that provide the general medicine service in said municipalities, during
the year 2010 in order to select, condense and analyze the information.
