What are the Challenges in Asthma Care and the way forward?

This program is dedicated to the management of asthma and the challenges that clinicians face on a daily basis to provide the best treatment for their patients. We will discuss the latest European guidelines for asthma, the real obstacles that clinicians face, the current game changes in asthma care and see what our future of asthma care will look like. Asthma is a common condition that produces a significant workload for general practice outpatient clinics and inpatient admissions.
