  • Background: Asthma is a chronic inflammatory airway disease closely associated with atopic diseases like allergic rhinitis. Asthma and allergic rhinitis prevalence is increasing, leading to higher medical costs and reduced patients' quality of life (QoL) and productivity. The correct management of asthmatic and rhinitic patients would be ensured by using international World Health Organization (WHO) guidelines as GINA (Global Initiative for Asthma) and ARIA (Allergic Rhinitis and its Impact on Asthma). Many studies prove that the guidelines recommendations are not or only partially applied within the clinical practice. This fact may be due to a poor communication within the doctor-patient relationship, to structural limitation of National Health Service or to a practical inapplicability of guidelines. Objectives: to evaluate the applicability of the GINA and ARIA guidelines and their impact on patients' QoL in General Practice; to evaluate the efficacy of a Continuing Medical Education (CME) intervention for General Practitioners (GPs) in Italy. Methods: prospective observational study in different Italian areas (North, Centre, South-Islands). 148 GPs (66 attended an educational intervention and 82 didn't attend it) are enrolling their patients with diagnosis of asthma/rhinitis and with prescription of antiasthmatic or anti-rhinitic drugs or asthmatic/rhinitic-like symptoms in the previous 12 months. The GPs and their patients will fill in a questionnaire about asthma and allergic rhinitis and management of diseases. The patient will fill in also the Rhinasthma questionnaire about the QoL and the Asthma Control Test. A follow-up will be done after 12 months. Expected Results: 1. evaluation of applicability, utility and adherence to GINA and ARIA guidelines, in different geographic areas, by GPs and patients; 2. epidemiological data on asthma and rhinitis burden (prevalence in adults and in elderly, economic costs and prevention); 3. short term and long term efficacy of a CME intervention; 4. evaluation of drugs prescription appropriateness. This work was supported by the Italian Medicines Agency (AIFA)\", within the independent drug research program. (literal)
