Abstract:
This article suggests a method for integrating the principles of Aboriginal knowledge translation (KT) in the implementation of a pilot for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) screening to improve current practice and provide health programming that is culturally sensitive and relevant. The elements of the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research model guided a community informed design for the Lung Health Day that was planned with two communities of the Secwepemc Nation in British Columbia. By integrating the principles of Aboriginal KT, program implementation design can address the current disparities in respiratory care and management of COPD and improve the health status of First Nations patients.

Translation
Translation is the process of synthesizing proteins from the genetic information carried by messenger RNA (mRNA). Following transcription, it constitutes the final step in the expression of genes. This process is carried out by ribosomes, complexes of protein and specialized RNA molecules. Ribosomes, transfer RNA (tRNA), and other proteins produce a chain of amino acids—the polypeptide—as the end product of translation.
