World Health Organization (WHO) considers chronic respiratory disease (CRD) as one of its
four priorities. These diseases include asthma and rhinitis, chronic obstructive pulmonary
diseases (COPD), occupational lung diseases, sleep apnoea syndromes, pulmonary hypertension,
bronchiectasis and interstitial lung diseases. They constitute a serious public health
problem in all countries throughout the world, in particular in low and middle income
countries and in deprived populations. Hundreds of millions of people of all ages, in all
countries of the world, are affected by chronic respiratory diseases. More than 50% of them
live in low and middle income countries. Over 90% of deaths and the complete inability, due
to CRDs occur in countries with low or middle incomes.
The main causes of CRD are: tobacco smoke, occupational factors, indoor air pollution and
outdoor air pollution, allergens, sequelae of respiratory infections such as tuberculosis.
More than 30% of the population of Ho Chi Minh City (HCMC) could develop a CRD. In fact, 15%
of children and 7% of adults could become asthma and 6% of the population could become COPD
due to smoking. Children exposed to fumes from biomass burning, early in their life, seem to
have a higher risk to develop COPD. The high level of air pollution in HCMC could aggravate
asthma / COPD. Populations combining the rural risk (exposure to smoke from biomass) and the
urban risk (smoking, pollution) may develop COPD much earlier (before age 40). Among the 9
million people in HCMC, 50% of the population is rural origin. Within this population,
parasites could play a protective role against the risk of allergic asthma and consequently,
the better control of helminthiasis among urban population, may result in allergic diseases
such as asthma and anaphylaxis. Finally, the sequelae of tuberculosis (incidence is
200/100000) could participate to the morbidity of COPD / CRD.
