Abstract

Asthma causes significant changes in patients life as well as their significant others. Many studies have conducted on inhalation technique and it is seen that not only patient but health care provider has lack of knowledge on different asthma devices and their proper use. Use of bronchodilators and inhaled corticosteroids through inhaler device can prevent episodes of asthma exacerbations. Many guidelines published for asthma control suggested importance of inhalation technique training and asthma action plan. Over 15 million Indians are suffering from bronchial asthma and this burden is constantly increasing. Indian hospitals are usually overcrowded and due to lack of time and manpower, any asthma education is usually neglected aspect. This article will provide information regarding asthma, inhaler devices and correct technique of inhaler use.
