Redefining asthma treatment success: bridging remission goals with patient-centred outcomes
Abstract
Extract I read with great interest the recent review discussing the challenges of defining and achieving remission in asthma [1]. While the authors aptly highlight the limitations of current remission criteria, including symptom variability, biomarker fluctuations and comorbidity impacts, I propose that this debate presents an opportunity to explore patient-centred, multidimensional assessment approaches, with tools like the CompOsite iNdex For Response in asthMa (CONFIRM) offering one potential framework [2].
