Asthma is a chronic inflammatory disease of the airway which is often misdiagnosed and
undertreated. Early diagnosis and vigilant asthma control are crucial to preventing permanent
airway damage, improving quality of life and reducing healthcare burdens. The key approaches
to asthma management should include patient empowerment through health education and selfmanagement and, an effective patient-healthcare provider partnership.
