Significant advancements in asthma research have been achieved over the past half-century, leading to an improved understanding of its intricate mechanisms and the development of more effective treatments. As a result, the body of scientific literature has expanded dramatically, making it challenging to synthesize all the information. With insights from an esteemed group of globally recognized experts, the Clinical Asthma: Theory and Practice, 2nd Edition, offers an in-depth exploration of both typical and more complex issues encountered by healthcare professionals treating asthma patients.
The textbook Clinical Asthma Theory and Practice 2E is organized into seven sections, beginning with fundamental concepts of asthma and concluding with a global perspective on asthma management in primary care. Each chapter places a strong focus on clinical practice, starting with a patient case study that is underpinned by crucial background information on the foundational science and the clinical decision-making process. This is followed by a discussion on clinical assessment and treatment approaches. The book covers a wide array of topics, such as genetics, inflammation, immunology, and the classification of various asthma endotypes, all from a multidisciplinary viewpoint. With a bench-to-bedside methodology, it bridges the gap between basic research and the clinical management of asthma, while examining ways to enhance patient care. The carefully curated contributions from experts worldwide provide a truly international perspective.
