Objective: By 2010, reduce the asthma hospitalization rate
to 8.5 per 10,000 population from the 2000 baseline asthma hospitalization rate of 10.6 per
10,000.
Sufficient Evidence for Effectiveness was found for the
following interventions:
Insufficient Evidence to Determine Effectiveness was found for the
following interventions:
Mixed Evidence was found for the following interventions:
(none)
Sufficient Evidence for Ineffectiveness was found for the following
interventions:
Limitations/Comments:
Randomized trials of the interventions listed above are often difficult to
carry out in practice due to: (1) limited ability to randomize and blind
participants to the interventions; and (2) the amount of time necessary to
carry out the interventions in order to find an effect.
