Respiratory Education and Support

Do you have questions about a respiratory condition?

Our health library for respiratory conditions is a great place to start to learn about common conditions. You can search for general respiratory health information or find details on a specific condition, such as asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

Learn about asthma

Asthma involves spasms of the bronchi in the lungs, which makes breathing difficult. Asthma is one of the most common respiratory conditions we treat. We treat asthma in adults, teens and children. Asthma is the most common long-term childhood disease and can be frightening for both kids and their caregivers.

Take our asthma quiz to get the facts about your child’s asthma.

Learn about asthma in older adults.

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a condition that makes breathing progressively more difficult over time.
