摘要

Asthma is a serious chronic lung disease with a significant economic burden. The population of the San Bernardino County Juvenile Detention and Assessment Centers have higher odds of asthma as compared to the general population. Research has shown that a significant number of patients with a prior history of asthma were misdiagnosed. A protocol using objective testing, along with the detailed patient's history, was successfully implemented to verify the diagnosis and guide more effective medical care. After the implementation of those steps, the prevalence of asthma was found to be lower with the new protocol, from 18.1% in the pre-protocol period to 11.2% in the post-protocol period. This decrease resulted in an associated reduction in both direct and indirect healthcare costs and more efficient medical care.
