This comprehensive book presents an evidence-based approach to
treating asthma in adults aged 65 and older, a vulnerable subset of
patients who are more likely to experience higher morbidity and
mortality rates, and often enduring higher financial burdens
related to treatment. Treatment of Asthma in Older Adults: A
Comprehensive, Evidence-Based Guide is a unique resource, providing
an up-to-date review of medication strategies, how asthma
phenotypes and treatment decisions interact, and how controlling
asthma triggers impacts long-term asthma outcomes in older
patients. Additionally, the book incorporates recent advances in
alternative therapies that improve the patient's quality of life.
Opening discussions address the unique challenges of the
differential diagnosis of asthma in older adults, as well as an
examination of the significant medical comorbidities that co-exist
with asthma. Subsequent chapters provide strategies to optimizing
asthma management in this specific population, including
information on case management that will assist allied health
providers. Finally, the book closes with an analysis of several
novel targets for therapy to treat severe asthma including
biologics, macrolides and bronchial thermoplasty. Written by
experts in the field, Treatment of Asthma in Older Adults: A
Comprehensive, Evidence-Based Guide is an indispensable resource
for allergists, pulmonologists, family physicians, physician
assistants, nurse practitioners and all other allied clinicians.
