Over-reliance on short-acting beta-agonists (SABAs) in asthma: a mixed method study, in primary care, in Greece
Our findings suggest that over-reliance on SABAs is significantly associated with poor asthma control. Moreover, RRT was successfully translated in Greek, and proved to be reliable; This suggests its potential to facilitate the development of more targeted strategies for identifying and addressing this issue, while also promoting collaborative patient-GP discussions with the aim of achieving optimal asthma outcomes.
