    INTRODUCTION

    The best strategy for management of acute exacerbations of asthma is early recognition and intervention, before attacks become severe and potentially life threatening.

    Detailed investigations into the circumstances surrounding fatal asthma have frequently revealed failures on the part of both patients and clinicians to recognize the severity of the disease and to intensify treatment appropriately [1].

    The emergency department and inpatient management of acute asthma exacerbations will be presented here.

    An overview of asthma management, the management of acute exacerbations of asthma at home and in the office, identification of risk factors for fatal asthma, and use of mechanical ventilation in severe exacerbations of asthma are discussed separately.
