This year marks the third annual World Bronchiectasis Day. The ATS and its partners in the Forum of International Respiratory Societies are committed to raising global awareness, sharing knowledge, and discussing ways to reduce the burden of bronchiectasis for patients and their families worldwide.
The inaugural World Bronchiectasis Day, July 1, 2022, raised awareness for bronchiectasis by sharing resources including:
- Video: The Faces of Bronchiectasis
- Information sheet: Basics of Bronchiectasis
- Information sheet: Treatment of Bronchiectasis
Join us on #WorldBronchiectasisDay2024 on July 1 at 2 p.m. ET for an X (Twitter) Chat hosted by ATS's World Bronchiectasis Day global partner, the COPD Foundation. The 50-minute discussion will address diagnosis,
treatment, disparities as well as navigating the emotional aspects of living with bronchiectasis.
For additional resources, visit the ATS Bronchiectasis Education Center, a new offering in ATS Ed+. Help educate your patients about exacerbation consequences and when to seek medical intervention for optimal management.
