Two thirds of people with asthma do not lead a full life because of their condition.
International family physician organisations join to launch results of their first global patient survey
Today’s survey also found that a third of people with asthma worry about the impact asthma will have on their future health. Respondents also indicated that asthma impacts every day life.
87% of people with asthma report that asthma restricts their ability to take part in physical activities or exercise, and 70% claim that their asthma interrupts their sleep.
The survey was conducted amongst people with asthma in nine countries and launches the Spring into Action campaign, an initiative supported by international family physician organisations the International Primary Care Respiratory Group (IPCRG), and the World Organization of Family Doctors (Wonca).
