    This document provides brief summaries of common respiratory diseases, including key diagnostic criteria: 1) Asthma is diagnosed through pulmonary function tests showing a 12% increase and/or 200mL increase in FEV1 and FVC, along with nighttime symptoms. It is the most common childhood disease. 2) COPD involves chronic productive cough for 3 months over two years (chronic bronchitis), hyperinflated lungs and flattened diaphragm (emphysema), dyspnea, smoking history over age 45, and vaccination against flu and pneumonia. 3) Bronchiectasis is suggested by pleuritic chest pain, weight loss, digital clubbing, excessive purulent sputum,
