Estudio de prevalencia de asma en población general en España
INTRODUCTION: Asthma is a disease with high prevalence, which affects all age groups and generates high health and social care costs. Studies carried out in a number of populations show great variability in its prevalence, even in geographically close populations, with data suggesting a relevant inf...

description | INTRODUCTION: Asthma is a disease with high prevalence, which affects all age groups and generates high health and social care costs. Studies carried out in a number of populations show great variability in its prevalence, even in geographically close populations, with data suggesting a relevant influence of socio-economic factors. At present, we do not have reliable data on the prevalence of this disease in the adult population of Spain. The objectives of this study are to estimate the prevalence of asthma in the Spanish population for those aged 18-79, to describe the variability between autonomous communities, to estimate the prevalence of under and overdiagnosis, to analyse the prevalence of uncontrolled asthma and steroid-dependent asthma, to evaluate the health care cost, to identify the most frequent phenotypes and to establish a starting point to evaluate the temporal trend with subsequent studies. METHODS: A cross-sectional, two-stage study will be carried out, including patients from 50 catchment areas. The study will be carried out in 3 phases: 1) screening and confirmation in the clinical history, in which patients with a previously correctly established diagnosis of asthma will be identified; 2) diagnosis of asthma to evaluate patients without a confirmed or excluded diagnosis; 3) characterization of asthma, where the characteristics of the asthmatic patients will be analysed, identifying the most frequent phenotypes. DISCUSSION: It seems necessary and feasible to carry out an epidemiological study of asthma in Spain to identify the prevalence of asthma, to optimize healthcare planning, to characterize the most frequent phenotypes of the disease, and to evaluate inaccurate diagnoses. |
