In chronic obstructive pulmonary disease concept and diagnosis, there was significant difference between two groups(χ2=21.99, P<0.05 and χ2=7.41, P<0.05) . Conclusion The level of the cognitive of COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease) among the general practitioners is very poor, and is strong against to the management work of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
