Abstract
The term respiratory disease refers to a number of conditions that affect the lungs or their components [1]; each of these conditions is characterised by some level of impairment of the lungs in performing the essential function of gas exchange [2]. Respiratory diseases, which can be caused by a variety of different factors and other medical problems (which may or may not start in the lungs), are generally divided into two basic categories: acute respiratory infections and chronic respiratory diseases [3].
