Expert authors explore questions such as: * What is the evidence that respiratory health disparities exist? * What do we know about the causes of the disparities? * What are the clinical implications? * What can be done to address disparities and thus achieve respiratory health equality? Recognizing the magnitude of this problem, the American Thoracic Society (ATS) Executive Committee created a Health Equality and Diversity Committee, with an initial mandate of defining respiratory health disparities and respiratory health equality in the United States. This book will follow the format of a workshop on respiratory health equality held before the 2015 ATS International Meeting and led by editor Juan Carlos Celedón. Written by the workshop presenters and other distinguished guests, this book will focus closely on major risk factors for disparities in respiratory health, and potential approaches to eliminate such disparities. Achieving Respiratory Health Equality in the United States is a timely resource for researchers, clinicians, and public health practitioners in respiratory medicine. 410 0$aRespiratory Medicine,$x2197-7372 606 $aRespiratory organs?Diseases 606 $aHealth promotion 606 $aCritical care medicine 606 $aPneumology/Respiratory System$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H33134 606 $aHealth Promotion and Disease Prevention$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H27010 606 $aIntensive / Critical Care Medicine$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H3100X 615 0$aRespiratory organs?Diseases. 615 0$aHealth promotion. 615 0$aCritical care medicine. 615 14$aPneumology/Respiratory System. 615 24$aHealth Promotion and Disease Prevention. 615 24$aIntensive / Critical Care Medicine. 676 $a614.59200973 702 $aCeledón$b Juan Carlos$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910148855603321 996 $aAchieving Respiratory Health Equality$91538806 997 $aUNINA
