Asthma is the most common chronic illness of Canadians, affecting from 10% to 15% of the population. Although much has been written about the underlying pathophysiology of asthma, and numerous guidelines have been published on asthma management, little time has been devoted to the clinical management of chronic asthma. This article will assist family practitioners in the day-to-day management of chronic asthma with special attention to important elements of follow up.
