Abstract:
By systematically reviewing the concept evolution of pre-chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (pre-COPD) and the research status of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), as well as considering the clinical practice, this paper puts forward the strategies for the prevention and treatment of pre-COPD with TCM. These strategies include identifying high-risk groups by combining TCM syndrome and constitution, advocating the principle of "treating disease before it arises" and promoting the combination of syndrome differentiation and constitution evaluation to achieve individualized intervention, promoting collaboration between TCM and western medicine, supported by digital and intelligent technologies, to establish a whole-process management mode of "hospital-community-family". The aim is to realize the early diagnosis, early intervention and whole-process management of pre-COPD, thereby helping reduce the incidence of COPD.
