Astım, tekrarlayan öksürük hışıltı atakları ile seyreden, tedavi ile veya tedavisiz düzelebilen, genellikle bronş hiper reaktivitesinin eşlik ettiği, eozinofil ve mast hücrelerinin ön planda olduğu hava yollarının kronik inflamatuvar hastalığıdır. Astım prevalansının çocuklarda %2-15 ve erişkinlerde ise %2-5 arasında dağılım gösterdiği görülmektedir. “The Global Initiative for Asthma” kuruluşuna göre astım yönetim stratejisinde hastaların eğitimi ve düzenli takibin sağlanmasında önemli basamaklardır.Tedavisi zor astımın en önemli sebebi tedaviye uyumsuzluk olarak değerlendirilmektedir. Bu derlememizde astım tedavisinde uyumu etkileyen nedenler ve çözüm önerilerini sunmaktayız.
