Why asthma still kills is a study commissioned by the National Review of Asthma Deaths (NRAD), the first and largest study ever conducted on asthma deaths in Britain.
The major goal was to learn more about the circumstances behind asthma mortality to identify preventable variables and provide suggestions for better care and fewer deaths.
Asthma episodes may be both serious and deadly. You may not be able to receive oxygen into your lungs during a severe asthma attack.
