Impact of a Provincial Asthma Guidelines Continuing Medical Education Project: The Ontario Asthma Plan of Action’s Provider Education in Asthma Care Project

Abstract

This continuing medical education program addresses identified needs of primary care providers. Participants reported improvements in asthma care, including prescribing practices, use of spirometry and written action plans. Similar programs should be considered as part of multifaceted asthma guidelines dissemination and implementation initiatives in other provinces and nationally.
