Area of Science:

  • Sports Medicine
  • Pulmonology
  • Chronic Disease Management

Background:

  • Asthma affects athletes of all levels, impacting performance and quality of life.
  • Adherence to asthma treatment is crucial for managing the condition effectively in athletic populations.
  • Limited research exists on adherence specifically within the asthmatic athlete population.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore adherence challenges in asthmatic athletes.
  • To identify barriers to asthma treatment compliance in athletes.
  • To propose the Shared Decision-Making model as an optimal strategy for improving adherence.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review on asthma adherence and athlete-specific factors.
  • Discussion of shared decision-making principles in chronic disease management.
  • Analysis of athlete-related, physician-related, and treatment-related barriers.

Main Results:

  • Common adherence barriers exist across different athlete demographics.
  • The Shared Decision-Making model is highly applicable to asthmatic athletes.
  • Strategies to overcome identified barriers are essential for optimal disease management.

Conclusions:

  • Improving adherence in asthmatic athletes requires addressing multifaceted barriers.
  • The Shared Decision-Making model provides a framework for enhancing treatment compliance.
  • Special considerations are needed for elite and professional asthmatic athletes.
