摘要
The provider’s ability to judge the severity of a patient’s illness is a vital part of the care of chronic disorders. In the treatment of asthma, it should extend beyond the objectively quantifiable measures of obstruction or inflammation. “Interference with activities of daily living” is a highly subjective assessment that may not allow quantitative comparisons, but it matters to the patient. Interventions aimed at lessening the burden of asthma on the daily life of the patient and his or her family may hold the key to improvement in a broader range of outcome measures.
