Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) ranked as the fifth leading cause of death in 2002 and it is had been predicted to become fourth leading cause of death worldwide by 2030. COPD is a disease that will narrow the airway progressively and it alters the behaviour of normal breathing flow. Th...
