CEA Global Asthma Assessments aims to increase awareness among health care providers, patients, and their families about the relationship between asthma and indoor air quality, and to support patients and their families in the management of asthma and its environmental triggers at home.
Exposure to indoor air pollutants is an important contributor to the onset of respiratory
system illnesses. Environmental triggers contained in indoor air play a key role in the
exacerbation of pediatric asthma. The goals of this project will be to supplement health care provider knowledge, increase patient/patient family awareness of the relationship between asthma and indoor air quality, conduct in-home assessments for environmental triggers and relate the importance of asthma action plans.
