even more if someone breathes in dust or fumes in the workplace and they also smoke.<br />

Air pollution may also be an additional risk factor, but the association is not clear and<br />

further research is continuing into this potential risk factor. Genetics can also play a role<br />

in the development of COPD.<br />

Based on the information presented in Table 96, Action on Smoking and Health<br />

estimate that 84% of all COPD deaths are directly attributable to smoking. The strength<br />

of the association locally is clearly illustrated in the Figure 224 which shows, by local<br />

deprivation quintile, the under 75 directly standardised mortality rate (DSR) for COPD<br />

per 100,000 persons for 2005-2007 in relation to the prevalence of daily and occasional<br />

smoking from the local Health and Lifestyle Survey conducted during 2007. The<br />

underlying data are given in the APPENDIX on page 926.<br />

The prevalence of diagnosed COPD is given in section 10.5.1.1 on page 599 for each<br />

general practice in Hull for 2009/10. Table 296 presents the prevalence of COPD for<br />

2009/10 for Hull and comparator areas (see section 3.3.3 on page 44), as well as for<br />

England. Within the World Class Commissioning Strategy for the PCT, reducing the<br />

prevalence of undiagnosed COPD was set as a specific target, so given the high<br />

prevalence of smoking in Hull and this target, it is not unexpected that the prevalence of<br />

diagnosed COPD is higher than England and the average of the 10 comparators.<br />
