This asthma nursing concept map depicts asthma symptoms and treatment. Asthma is a condition in which your airways narrow and swell. This can also make breathing difficult, resulting in coughing, wheezing, and shortness of breath. Asthma is a minor annoyance for some people. For others, it can be a major issue that disrupts daily activities and may result in a life-threatening asthma attack. Although asthma cannot be cured, its symptoms can be managed. Because asthma frequently changes over time, you must work with your doctor to monitor your symptoms and adjust your treatment as needed, as illustrated in this asthma nursing concept map.
