“…These findings may represent a lack of understanding related to the basic mechanisms of action of these drugs or confusion regarding the labeling terms. Knowledge deficits regarding asthma medication is not uncommon among caregivers (8,28). In a previous focus group study, over 50% of caregivers of children and adolescents diagnosed with asthma for at least three years expressed confusion regarding medication usage and function (8).…”

“…They implemented this goal by establishing routines and by eliciting the support of others such as family and teaching staff. Established medication routines have been positively associated with adherence (8). Several caregivers also shared the importance of having accurate knowledge of medication usage to prevent inappropriate medication administration by persons other than the teen.…”

“…Knowledge deficits regarding asthma medication is not uncommon among caregivers (8,28). In a previous focus group study, over 50% of caregivers of children and adolescents diagnosed with asthma for at least three years expressed confusion regarding medication usage and function (8). Research also suggests that communication that might help clarify asthma management issues with caregivers is often limited during office visits in part due to practice-based time constraints (28).…”

“…111 Similarly, a Cochrane analysis found that some evidence from 2 trials of family therapy (in addition to standard asthma treatments) might help reduce a child's asthma symptoms, but more research is needed to be certain. 112 In another recent trial, Cloutier and Wakefield sought to determine if a successful asthma-management program could be translated into pediatricians' offices, improve care, and reduce medical services use.…”

SummaryAsthma is a multifactorial, chronic inflammatory disease of the airways. The knowledge that asthma is an inflammatory disorder has become a core fundamental in the definition of asthma. Asthma's chief features include a variable degree of air-flow obstruction and bronchial hyper-responsiveness, in addition to the underlying chronic airways inflammation. This underlying chronic airway inflammation substantially contributes to airway hyper-responsiveness, air-flow limitation, respiratory symptoms, and disease chronicity. However, this underlying chronic airway inflammation has implications for the diagnosis, management, and potential prevention of the disease. This review for the respiratory therapy community summarizes these developments as well as providing an update on asthma epidemiology, natural history, cause, and pathogenesis. This paper also provides an overview on appropriate diagnostic and monitoring strategies for asthma, pharmacology, and newer therapies for the future as well as relevant management of acute and ambulatory asthma, and a brief review of educational approaches.

Parental beliefs and willingness to pay for reduction in their child's asthma symptoms: A joint estimation approach

Many aspects of asthma—in particular the relationship between beliefs, averting behaviors, and symptoms—are not directly observable from market data. An approach that combines observable market data with nonmarket valuation to gather data on unobservable aspects of the illness can improve efforts to quantify the burden of asthma if it accounts for the endogeneity in the system. Such approaches are used in the valuation of recreation but have not been widely used to value the burden of a chronic illness. We estimate parents' willingness to pay (WTP) to reduce their child's asthma symptoms using a three‐equation model that combines revealed preference, contingent valuation, and burden of asthma, increasing the efficiency of estimation and correcting for endogeneity. WTP for a device that reduces a child's asthma symptoms by 50% is $125/month (s.d. $20). Parents' valuations are driven by beliefs about asthma and by their degree of worry about asthma between episodes. There is a nonlinear relationship between the number of days with symptoms and WTP per symptom day. The experience of living with asthma affects families' responses to a contingent valuation scenario, because it influences willingness to spend money to manage the illness and their subjective perceptions and beliefs about the illness itself.
