Assessment of Inhalation Technique in Clinical and Functional Control of Asthma and Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

Abstract

Teaching inhalation technique has a positive impact on its future performance. Most patients make mistakes, affecting clinical control in asthma, although in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease no relation was found. This is an ongoing work that aims to reevaluate inhalation technique after patients' education and its further impact.
