Evaluation of a Global Initiative for Asthma Education and Implementation Program to Improve Asthma Care Quality (CARE4ALL): Protocol for a Multicenter, Single-Arm Study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Poor symptom control and exacerbations of asthma diminish quality of life and pose a significant burden to patients and society. Implementing evidence-based management as recommended by the Global Initiative for Asthma (GINA), especially introducing inhaled corticosteroid-containing treatments, has the potential to vastly reduce exacerbations and the high burden of asthma in China. However, domestic implementation of the GINA recommendations has been unsatisfactory, especially in lower-level hospitals; thus, an enhancement to the awareness of and adherence to the GINA recommendations among Chinese physicians is needed to improve patient outcomes.

Objective

This study aims to bridge the gap between the GINA recommendations and the current clinical practice in China
