Narasimhan, Senior Pulmonologists, Apollo Hospitals highlighted that, “We should remember that asthma is a long-term disease that has no cure, but can be controlled well through inhalers. There are many patients who will stop taking their inhalers once they feel better. This can be dangerous and effect their breathing and doing daily chores will make them breathless. Patients should consult their doctor and the necessary tests to be taken to keep their lung healthy and fit.” Spirometry measures airflow, by measuring how much air you exhale, and how quickly you exhale, spirometry can evaluate a broad range of lung diseases. Spirometry measures how well the lungs exhale. Whereas pulmonary function tests are a broad range of tests that measure how well the lungs take in and exhale air and how efficiently they transfer oxygen into the blood. Lung volume measurement detects restrictive lung diseases. Dr.R. Sridhar, Medical superintendent at Govt.Tambaram Sanatorium Hospital, Stanley Medical College further added, “It is important to understand the need to know your lung number and why inhalation therapy is the most effective therapy to control asthma and breathlessness. This World Asthma Day, we urge people who are asthmatic or feel breathless should get the spirometry test or pulmonary test, a first step to understand asthma symptoms. Myths associated with the treatment needs to be busted. Inhaled corticosteroids have been recognized and widely accepted as the mainstay of asthma management.” The goal of asthma treatment is to control the disease. The most effective way to control asthma is through - Inhalation Therapy which is available in India at a price as low as INR 4 to INR 6 per day which means that a year’s supply of medicine is less than the cost of 1 night’s stay at the hospital.
