This week we are looking at respiratory disorders. For the assignment, you are working up a patient that has asthma and creating a small PowerPoint presentation. Give me long- and short-term treatment options, doses, and counseling points. Explain the stepwise approach to asthma treatment and management for your patient. Finally, explain how the stepwise management assists healthcare providers and patients in gaining and maintaining control of the disease. Keep up the good work!

Asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are significant public health burdens. Currently, more than 25 million people in the United States have asthma (HealthyPeople.gov, 2019). As an advanced practice nurse, you will likely encounter patients who will present with respiratory disorders, including asthma or COPD. Understanding specific treatment protocols as well as the types of pharmacotherapeutics used to treat respiratory disorders is important to ensure the effective and safe delivery of advanced nursing practice.

This week, you will evaluate drug therapy plans for patients who present with asthma and analyze the stepwise approach to asthma treatment and management from a patient in your professional practice.

One method that supports the clinical decision making of drug therapy plans for asthmatic patients is the stepwise approach, which you explore in this Assignment.

To Prepare

· Reflect on drugs used to treat asthmatic patients, including long-term control and quick relief treatment options for patients. Think about the impact these drugs might have on patients, including adults and children.

· Consider how you might apply the stepwise approach to address the health needs of a patient in your practice.

· Reflect on how stepwise management assists health care providers and patients in gaining and maintaining control of the disease.

Create a 5- to 6-slide PowerPoint presentation that can be used in a staff development meeting on presenting different approaches for implementing the stepwise approach for asthma treatment. Be sure to address the following:

· Describe long-term control and quick relief treatment options for the asthma patient from your practice as well as the impact these drugs might have on your patient.

· Explain the stepwise approach to asthma treatment and management for your patient.

· Explain how stepwise management assists health care providers and patients in gaining and maintaining control of the disease. Be specific.
