简要总结
The greater efficacy of combination therapy led to the development of fixed combination devices which simultaneously carry both glucocorticosteroid and a LABA (eg stable combinations of fluticasone-salmeterol, budesonide-formoterol).
Fixed combinations are easier to use for patients, potentially increasing compliance, and ensure that the LABA always accompanied by glycocorticosteroeides1. From the available combinations of the combination of budesonide-formoterol can be used both in maintenance therapy and for the relief of symptoms due to the rapid onset of action of formoterol compared with salmeterol. Both components of budesonide-formoterol combination when administered on demand contribute to strengthening protection from severe exacerbations in patients receiving combination therapy for maintenance, and enable improvement of asthma control at relatively low doses of ICS.
详细描述
This prospective observational study of the Greek population to approximately 2,500 patients suffering from asthma, aims to collect the characteristics of patients that were selected to obtain an inhaled combination of budesonide and formoterol fumarate dihydrate in any of portions 100 / 6mcg, 200 / 6mcg, 400/12 mcg (Pulmoton®), and to collect data on the quality of life to such an inhaled combination through Elpenhaler® device.
Data will be collected for a period of three months from patients diagnosed with asthma not adequately controlled with inhaled corticosteroids and 'as needed' inhaled beta2-agonists short-acting or patients already adequately controlled on both inhaled corticosteroids and long-acting beta2-agonists.
Data will be collected during the period of one (1) to three (3) months (± 2 weeks) from the initiation of treatment with inhaled combination include ACQ checklist questionnaire mini AQLQ, questionnaire FSI 10, and data any existing comorbidities.
