NIH Asthma Guidelines

The NIH Asthma Guidelines provide healthcare professionals with evidence-based recommendations to diagnose and manage asthma effectively. They emphasize personalized treatment plans based on the severity of symptoms, using inhaled medications such as corticosteroids and bronchodilators to control airway inflammation and prevent flare-ups. The guidelines highlight the importance of regular monitoring, avoiding triggers, and educating patients about self-management. They aim to improve quality of life, reduce emergency visits, and prevent long-term lung damage by promoting a tailored approach that adjusts treatment according to the patient's needs.
