of reversible and irreversible airways obstruction and include chronic respiratory disorder (fumes/vapors), chronic cough
syndrome, WTC-exacerbated chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, asthma, and reactive airways dysfunction syndrome
(RADS).

Bronchiectasis is certifiable as WTC-related chronic respiratory disorder (fumes/vapors) and/or as a medically associated
health condition to a certifiable WTC-related health condition under certain lung disease categories.

Evidence supporting a diagnosis of WTC-exacerbated COPD consists of one or more of the following: (1) a record of
physician diagnosis of COPD made prior to the individual’s 9/11 exposure; (2) history of symptoms of chronic cough,
sputum production and/or dyspnea experienced prior to the individual’s 9/11 exposure; (3) a history of recurrent
bronchopulmonary infections experienced prior to the individual’s 9/11 exposure; (4) a record of pulmonary function tests
showing chronic airways obstruction existing prior to the individual’s 9/11 exposure; and/or (5) a record of imaging studies
consistent with COPD existing prior to the individual’s 9/11 exposure.
