- Description
- Asthma is responsible for considerable global morbidity and health-care costs. Substantial progress was made against key outcomes such as hospital admissions with asthma and mortality in the 1990s and early 2000s, but little improvement has been observed in the past 10 years, despite escalating treatment costs. New assessment techniques are not being adopted and new drug discovery has progressed more slowly than in other specialties.
