Self-Management of Acute Asthma among Low-Income Urban Adults
Journal of Asthma, 08/17/09
George M et al. – Four themes associated with acute asthma self–management emerged from the qualitative analysis. The first theme safety reflected subjects' perception that CAM was safer than SABA. Severity addressed the calculation that subjects made in determining if SABA or CAM was indicated based on the degree of symptoms they were experiencing. The third theme speed and strength of the combination described subjects' belief in the superiority of integrating CAM and SABA for acute asthma self–management. The final themesense of identity spoke to the ability of CAM to provide a customized self–management strategy that subjects desired.
