Status of metered dose inhaler technique among patients with asthma and its effect on asthma control in Northwest Ethiopia

OBJECTIVE: In Asthma management, poor handling of inhalation devices and wrong inhalation technique are associated with decreased medication delivery and poor disease control. The aim of this study was to assess the status of Metered dose inhaler technique, associated factors and its impact on Asthm...

description OBJECTIVE: In Asthma management, poor handling of inhalation devices and wrong inhalation technique are associated with decreased medication delivery and poor disease control. The aim of this study was to assess the status of Metered dose inhaler technique, associated factors and its impact on Asthma control among adult patients with Asthma. RESULTS: The mean duration of Asthma was 15 ± 13 years. Asthma was uncontrolled in 70.4% of the participants and the poor technique of Asthma inhaler device was observed in 71.4% of the patients. Lack of health education on Metered dose inhaler technique [AOR =4.96; 95% CI (1.08–22.89)], and uncontrolled Asthma [AOR =3.67; 95% CI (1.85–7.23)], was independently associated with poor Metered dose inhaler technique. ELECTRONIC SUPPLEMENTARY MATERIAL: The online version of this article (10.1186/s13104-019-4059-9) contains supplementary material, which is available to authorized users.
