One goal of asthma therapy outlined by the NHLBI Expert Panel 3 guidelines is:
 
  1. Ability to use albuterol daily to control symptoms
  2. Minimize exacerbations to once a month
  3. Keep nighttime symptoms at a maximum of twice a week
  4. Require infrequent use of beta 2 agonists (albuterol) for relief of symptoms

Question 2

A stepwise approach to the pharmacologic management of asthma:
 
  1. Begins with determining the severity of asthma and assessing asthma control
  2. Is used when asthma is severe and requires daily steroids
  3. Allows for each provider to determine their personal approach to the care of asthmatic patients
  4. Provides a framework for the management of severe asthmatics, but is not as helpful when patients have intermittent asthma
