Abstract

Introduction: chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is an entity characterized by dyspnea, chronic cough and fatigue, being the severity of these progressive as the disease progresses and determined by the predominance of one of its components: chronic bronchitis and emphysema.

Objective: to describe the environmental factors associated with the development of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.

Methods: a search for information was carried out in the SciELO, Medigraphic, Redalyc and AmeliCA databases. Twenty-two articles referring to the period 2018-2020, open access and in Spanish and English languages were selected.

Development: the environmental factors that predispose the population to develop COPD are smoking (active and passive), exposure to environmental pollutants, industrial substances.

Conclusions: chronic obstructive pulmonary disease presents high mortality worldwide, for this reason it is essential to take into account the predisposition that a person may have to develop this disease, as well as the importance for physicians to make a timely diagnosis and prevention.
