Asthma guidelines play an important role in guiding health care providers and patients by providing evidence-based recommendations for asthma management. The National Heart Lung and Blood Institute (NHLBI) supports the development of clinical practice guidelines based on the best available science that specialists and health care providers can use to improve the care that patients receive.

The updates to the NHLBI EPR-3 (Asthma Management) guidelines were recently released.  In partnership, with the University of Missouri, the Asthma Program at the Missouri  Department of Health has provided a link to a recent webinar for school nurses.

Check out their other webinars as well. Some are Missouri specific, some are more general.
