description Objective: To determine the relationship between self-care level and the risk of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in adults exposed to environmental pollutants. Methods: A cross-sectional, correlational study was conducted. Participants included 342 adults aged 35 years selected through stratified probability sampling from a population of 3,065 inhabitants. Self-care was assessed using the Appraisal of Self-Care Agency Scale (ASA), and COPD risk was measured with the COPD Population Screener (COPD-PS) questionnaire. The Kolmogorov–Smirnov test was used to evaluate normality (p < 0.05), and Spearman’s rho correlation coefficient was applied for inferential analysis. Results: Low self-care was identified in 78.4% of participants, while 52.0% presented a high risk of COPD. A moderate, inverse, and statistically significant correlation was found between both variables (rho = -0.485; p < 0.001), indicating that higher levels of self-care are associated with lower respiratory risk. Conclusion: The coexistence of low self-care and elevated respiratory risk evidences community vulnerability.
