Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
The chart shows the burden of disease prevalence in Nepal over a period of time. Diseases like neonatal disorder, lower respiratory tract infection, and diarrhoeal diseases have shown a gradual decrease in prevalence over the period from 1990 to 2017. The reason for this decrease in number is due to the implementation of several health programs by the government with the involvement of other international organizations such as WHO and UNICEF for maternal and child health, as these diseases are very common among the children. Whereas, there is a remarkable increment in the number of other diseases like Ischemic heart disease (IHD), Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), Road injuries, Stroke, and Diabetes.
