Living with asthma requires significant patient participation in self-care and management of their chronic disease. The objective of this research is to educate and promote the health of asthmatic patients, through nursing interventions. Education is vital for a patient with asthma and involves a collaborative partnership between the nurse and patient. Due to the chronic nature of asthma, nurses have a critical role in educating patients on how to recognize when asthma is worsening and when to respond appropriately to improve their outcome. Education can enable the patient to effectively self-manage and take responsibility for their illness. Written, verbal, and visual education should be used to teach the patient how to use their medications effectively. Most importantly, the patient must be able to explain their treatment and demonstrate the use of their inhaler. It is through better education focused on asthma that the quality of care can be improved. The main goal with asthma is to take the time to educate the patient about triggers, signs of good control, medications, and how best to use an action plan. Asthma: Patient Education and Nursing Interventions Currently, 24 million Americans of all ages suffer from this chronic disease. asthma disease. The prevalence of asthma increased from 7.3% (20.3 million people) in 2001 to 8.2% (24.6 million people) in 2009, an increase of 12.3% (Centers for Disease Control [CDC], 2011). In 2009, the prevalence of asthma was higher among children (9.6%) than adults (7.7%), and was particularly high among boys (11.3%) and non-Black children. Hispanics (17.0%) (CDC, 2011). Among all children, the rate of asthma increased significantly between 2001 and 2009, from 8.7% to 9.6%, with...... middle of article...... ase, and clinical guidelines advocate a stepwise approach to drug treatment, where treatment is intensified when necessary and reduced when control is good. Asthma care requires routine care visits, pharmacological treatment to effectively manage and control symptoms, and an environment that minimizes exposure to asthma triggers. People with asthma can reduce the severity and number of attacks by using their medications as prescribed and avoiding or treating asthma triggers, such as allergies. They will learn the importance of preventive treatment that can help them stay healthy and avoid both hospital admissions and emergency room visits. Prevention management involves teaching the patient who has persistent airway obstruction and frequent asthma attacks to avoid acute attack triggers and take medication before exercising..
