BMC Pulmonary Medicine, 09/08/09
Emtner M et al. – Patients with asthma had a better self reported knowledge of disease management and were less likely to have new exacerbations than patients with COPD. Reported level of knowledge was, however, in it self not a predictor of exacerbations. This indicates that information is not sufficient to reduce the burden of disease. Patient education focused on self–management and behavioral change should be emphasized.
