The adolescent with asthma experiences a period of physical and psychosocial changes that affect their health and well-being. Overall, adolescents with asthma are at increased risk for asthma morbidity and death. Increased rates of depression and anxiety, for the adolescent and their caregivers, can lead to non-adherence to their medical regimens, poor symptom control, and poor treatment outcomes. Contextual factors, such as race, ethnicity, and living situation, affect the prevalence, morbidity, and mortality for the adolescent with asthma. These factors also affect the transition process for adolescents entering adult medical care. An overview is presented of how the adolescent with asthma differs and how healthcare providers can promote effective asthma management and better asthma control.
哮喘青少年经历身体和心理社会变化的时期，这些变化会影响他们的健康和幸福感。总的来说，哮喘青少年患哮喘发病率和死亡率增加。青少年及其照顾者的抑郁和焦虑率增加，可能导致他们不遵守医疗方案、症状控制不佳和治疗效果不佳。背景因素，如种族、民族和居住情况，会影响哮喘青少年的发病率、发病率和死亡率。这些因素也会影响进入成人医疗保健的青少年的过渡过程。本文概述了哮喘青少年的不同之处，以及医疗保健提供者如何促进有效的哮喘管理和更好的哮喘控制。
