Asthmaaktionsplan

The Asthmaaktionsplan, also known as the Asthma Action Plan, is a document developed in cooperation with healthcare professionals, individuals with asthma, and their caregivers. It outlines the steps to be taken in managing asthma, from prevention to treatment, to control and alleviate symptoms.

The plan is divided into four zones, representing different levels of asthma severity. The Green Zone indicates normal lung function, while the Yellow, Red, and Black zones signify increasing severity of symptoms.

In the Asthmaaktionsplan, a daily peak flow meter is used to monitor lung function. Symptom samplers and diaries are also used to track episodes, to identify patterns and connections between specific factors and symptoms.

To improve asthma control, medical professionals are involved in developing the Asthmaaktionsplan, providing a comprehensive approach that incorporates asthma education, self-management techniques, and stick to actions that adapt over time to the changes in life and asthma in the patient.

Key components of the Asthmaaktionsplan include monitoring medications, keeping track of inhaler use, a log for track in control and relief inhaler, homes to adhere to workout and stay online threatuations. Factors can trigger asthma symptoms, such as allergens like pollen, pet dander, smoke, odor, cold moth and heat, infections, and strong chemicals.
