Lack of awareness and inadequate knowledge on the aetio-pathogenesis of the disease together with inadequate ... for COPD care contributes to preventive and management challenges.

This literature review attempts to collect and synthesize information that could be useful in improving COPD care and informing the governments to take appropriate actions for prevention, diagnosis and management of COPD in Africa.
