How many times have you sat in an asthma consultation and asked a patient “how many doses of your inhaler have you forgotten to take in that last week?” There are times when you may understandably question the person's response, and other times when you will be convinced that they “take their puffers without fail” only to subsequently discover that you have been mistaken. Whilst clinicians want to understand the individual's level of treatment adherence, this approach is clearly flawed and we need to do better. Adherence in severe asthma is suboptimal as are the clinic measures to assess adherence http://ow.ly/CSZH30gCsBQ

严重哮喘的依从性：是时候做对了

您有多少次参加哮喘咨询并询问患者“上周您忘记吸入多少剂量的吸入器？” 有时您可以理解地质疑对方的反应，有时您会确信他们“一定要接受他们的吹嘘”，但随后发现您错了。虽然临床医生希望了解个人的治疗依从性水平，但这种方法显然存在缺陷，我们需要做得更好。重度哮喘患者的依从性并不理想，评估依从性的临床措施也是如此 http://ow.ly/CSZH30gCsBQ
