General Asthma Population

This interactive exhibit features Poets, Olympic Athletes, to Nobel Laureates and Film makers who have battled Asthma. It also covers the history of Asthma over time and has many video links that chronicle the efforts to understand the disease. Produced by the National Library of Medicine, in collaboration with the NIH, NHLBI, NIAID.

A series of four online videos, this campaign identifies various asthma triggers both inside and outside of the home. It also pays homage to the old trick of teaching
children and adults what it’s like to experience an asthma attack by having
them breathing through a straw. 

By raising the profile of asthma within the general community, advocates from all public health agencies and asthma organizations benefit. 

The American Lung Associaton recently posted new videos to its asthma YouTube channel. The channel now has eight how-to videos for asthma inhalers, using a spacer, and using a peak flow meter. A video on how to teach a child to belly breathe for relaxation has also been added.
