Explore our educational resources about the importance of lung function assessment in severe Adult and Pediatric Asthma.
May 7 is World Asthma Day. Asthma is a condition defined by chronic inflammation of the airways, which can lead to recurrent exacerbations and impaired lung function.
Lung function assessment is an integral part of the management of severe asthma in both adult and pediatric patients. The Global Initiative for Asthma (GINA) recommends lung function assessment every 1-2 years for asthma patients, with more frequent assessment for those at risk of worsening symptoms.
