Asthma � Evaluation and Management 2007 Update
Apollo Managed Care Consultants, Feb 2007, Pages: 75
Patients with asthma require a continuum of preventive, acute, psychological, rehabilitative, education, and self-management interventions to meet their complex health and psychosocial needs. Deaths usually occur in asthma as a result of the lack of appreciation for the severity of an exacerbation, and inadequate prompt home emergency treatment.
Care by a pulmonary or allergy specialist for patients with mild to moderate as well as severe asthma has demonstrated improved outcomes. Improved outcomes related to specialist management (as measured by reduced hospitalizations and ER visits) appear due to the greater use of prophylactic medication and other strategies such as case management.
This Report Provides: -Diagnosis, non-pharmaceutical and pharmaceutical management to improve the quality of care while reducing cost. --References. -Example handouts. -Web links/other resources.
These ‘single topics’ provide the tools needed for a cost-effective, evidence-based strategy to increase the efficiency and quality of care management. Each is supported by current references from the peer-reviewed medical literature and other authoritative resources.
