Asthma management has advanced, yet clinical outcomes like morbidity and medication use are increasing globally. This chronic respiratory condition significantly impacts patients

Area of Science:

  • Pulmonary Medicine
  • Clinical Outcomes Research
  • Epidemiology

Background:

  • Despite significant advances in asthma understanding and treatment, critical clinical outcomes show limited improvement.
  • Global asthma morbidity and medication use are rising, with only a slight decrease in mortality rates.
  • Asthma is a highly variable chronic disease with substantial physical, emotional, and social impacts across all age groups.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To analyze the persistent challenges in asthma management and its impact on patient quality of life.
  • To highlight the need for improved therapeutic strategies and public health interventions for asthma.
  • To underscore the progressive burden of asthma on individuals and healthcare systems.

Main Methods:

  • Analysis of trends in asthma morbidity, medication use, and mortality.
  • Assessment of the impact of asthma on daily functioning and autonomy in children, adults, and the elderly.
  • Main Results:

    • Limited progress in key clinical outcomes despite therapeutic advancements.
    • Increasing global trends in asthma morbidity and medication requirements.
    • Significant negative effects on physical, emotional, and social well-being, affecting daily activities and autonomy.

    Conclusions:

    • Current asthma therapies and understanding have not adequately curbed the disease's growing burden.
