BTS asthma discharge care bundle: 2016
Posted on: 17 Oct 2018The BTS has developed an asthma discharge care bundle, which is a set of evidence-based interventions to achieve best outcomes. It allows a focus on a small number of measurable strategies aimed at improving specific outcomes.
Additionally, it allows standardisation of practices and reduces variation in treatment of patients. It is to be used primarily for discharging patients (adults and children) with an acute asthma attack/exacerbation.
The bundle will help patients to manage their asthma and reduce hospital admissions.
