How Do COPD Airways Narrow Causing Airflow Limitation? Have you ever wondered how COPD causes difficulty in breathing and what changes happen inside the lungs? In this informative video, we'll explain the processes that lead to airflow limitation in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. We'll start by describing how the small airways in the lungs become inflamed and change shape, resulting in thickened walls and a narrower lumen, which makes it harder for air to pass through. We'll discuss the role of mucus-producing cells and glands that increase in number, leading to excess mucus that can block the airways. Additionally, we'll explain how the lining of the airways doesn't clear mucus effectively due to malfunctioning cilia, trapping debris and further obstructing airflow. The video will also cover how damage to the alveoli, the tiny air sacs responsible for oxygen exchange, results in the loss of elastic fibers, causing the lungs to lose their ability to recoil during exhalation. This leads to air trapping and a feeling of breathlessness. Understanding these changes helps clarify why COPD is a progressive disease that worsens over time. If you're interested in learning more about how COPD affects the lungs and why managing inflammation and mucus is essential, this video is for you.
