Patient Education & ATS PAR

Welcome to the Patient Education and ATS PAR website. The American Thoracic Society aims to provide useful information and web-links to patients and others who have an interest in lung, sleep, or critical care problems, treatment, and prevention. The ATS covers various topics for children and adults and new topics and updates are added regularly.

PATIENTS AND OTHER INTERESTED PUBLIC VIEWERS

We encourage you to check out:

• Patient Information Series: Short fact sheets on various lung and critical care topics
• Special topic education material such as Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease
• Links to other websites that have good patient information
• ATS Public Advisory Roundtable (PAR) – patient oriented organizations that are part of the ATS Public Advisory Roundtable
