As many as 20% of patients with asthma may not be achieving adequate control of their symptoms, even after they have maximized inhaled corticosteroids and their long-acting beta 2 agonist. If left uncontrolled, patients are at increased risk for serious exacerbations that can lead to ED visits and extended hospitalizations. In this podcast, Corinne Young, FNP-C, president of the Association of Pulmonary Advanced Practice Providers, talks with her colleague Ann Hefel, FNP, an allergy and asthma specialist from Children’s Hospital Colorado about reasons for poor asthma control and how to conduct an effective patient workup to identify the potential causes. This episode is available for CE/CME credits for NPs and PAs.
