Exploring elements that contribute to fatal asthma attacks. This book outlines the epidemiological characteristics of fatal asthma in inner cities and specific countries, as well as in seasons worldwide. It is ideal for respiratory specialists, clinical immunologists, allergists, physiologists, pulmonologists, and others.
Written by an international team of physicians experienced in all aspects of asthma care, this opportune work defines, with exceptional clarity, the atopic and environmental risk factors attributable to fatal asthma-recommending means of lowering the incidence of life-threatening episodes through timely prognosis and the start of treatment with drugs that reduce and prohibit the remodeling process.
Establishes the criteria for fatality-prone asthma individuals!
Exploring elements that contribute to fatal asthma attacks, such as
socioeconomic deprivation

inadequate medical care

genetic susceptibility to serious asthma

delayed recognition and introduction of suitable treatment, and
