A new study and survey by Economist Impact, with the support of GSK, shows the continuing work that needs to be done to improve quality of life for people living with asthma.

Key Points: 
  • Compare that to those with controlled asthma, for whom these rates are similar to that of healthy people.
  • Economist Impact carried out a survey of asthma patients spanning 13 countries , looking at how they perceived their current treatment, as well as what hope they had for future care.
  • This survey highlights some of the needs and gaps along a patient's asthma journey that still exist, and warrant continued efforts to improve asthma care.
  • The services offered by Economist Impact previously existed within The Economist Group as separate entities, including EIU Thought Leadership, EIU Public Policy, Economist Events and SignalNoise.
