Gibson

In this session, the listener will learn the myriad upstream potentially modifiable causes of asthma. The session will take a historical and anthropological viewpoint of why asthma is a significant chronic disease of childhood on a worsening trajectory in the US. The microbiome and the immune dys-regulation will take center stage. The major focus of the session will shift to levers of disease worsening and amelioration that can be pulled on for outcome change. It will finish with a case presentation, a testing and  treatment prescription for providers to follow and take home. 

Session Learning Objectives: 

1.) Understand the UPSTREAM reasons for asthma in children
2.) Understand the known levers that are modifiable in patients for disease amelioration?
3.) Understand what can you do in your clinic to change the health trajectories of children with asthma?
