In chronic diseases, a correct diagnosis and access to the most appropriate treatments are not sufficient to ensure an improved clinical condition. The patient’s compliance with a treatment regimen is a crucial, though often neglected step for achieving and maintaining over time outcomes that would otherwise be unattainable, first of all the disease control. Asthma is a multifactorial condition and, for this reason, its poor management might cause an altered quality of life and a significant increase in healthcare costs. New technologies offer valuable support to both patients and healthcare workers, allowing for therapeutic monitoring and ongoing assistance.

Abstract

In chronic diseases, a correct diagnosis and access to the most appropriate treatments are not sufficient to ensure an improved clinical condition. The patient’s compliance with a treatment regimen is a crucial, though often neglected step for achieving and maintaining over time outcomes that would otherwise be unattainable, first of all the disease control. Asthma is a multifactorial condition and, for this reason, its poor management might cause an altered quality of life and a significant increase in healthcare costs. New technologies offer valuable support to both patients and healthcare workers, allowing for therapeutic monitoring and ongoing assistance.
