To determine the primary health care (PHC) physicians' knowledge, attitudes, and practices on asthma care in the sectors of Abha and Khamis Mushayt, Aseer Region, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
We conducted a cross-sectional study in Aseer region, Saudi Arabia during the period from June to July 2001. Sixty-one PHC physicians were selected randomly through 2-stage stratified sampling with proportional allocation. Self-administered questionnaires were used covering PHC physicians' knowledge, attitudes and practices. Scoring of case scenarios on asthma care were established.
The mean total score for the case scenarios was poor, which was 37.7% of the total marks.
The knowledge of PHC physicians on asthma care in Aseer region was not satisfactory. The study recommends the establishment of new strategy to implement and disseminate the National Protocol for Asthma Management.

2001年6月至7月期间,我们在沙特阿拉伯阿西尔地区开展了一项横断面研究。通过两阶段分层抽样和按比例分配的方法随机选取了61名基层医疗医生。使用了涵盖基层医疗医生知识、态度和实践的自填式问卷。建立了哮喘护理病例情景评分。
病例情景的平均总分较低,为总分的37.7%。
阿西尔地区基层医疗医生在哮喘护理方面的知识并不令人满意。该研究建议制定新策略,以实施和推广《国家哮喘管理方案》。
