Abstract

Asthma is a chronic respiratory disease affecting more than 334 million people of all age groups globally. Although there are innumerable evidence-based guidelines and effective treatments for this disease, many patients with asthma still have uncontrolled symptoms. The effective control measures of chronic diseases primarily depend on the proper patient care in collaboration with healthcare providers. Currently, healthcare facilities are using the manual asthma action plan to customise each asthmatic patient to understand and manage asthma safely on their own. Thus, this article introduces a preliminary study of a digital health application prototype design based on the asthma action plan among adult asthma patients. The findings regarding the accessibility of this prototype among asthma patients will give a promising alternative tool to empower asthma patients to manage their asthma safely.
