Early deterioration detection in severe asthmaEarly deterioration detection in severe asthma

Hospital Universitari de Bellvitge is a tertiary hospital. Before LOLA, patients with severe asthma who felt unwell went to the emergency department or to their GP. Guidelines recommend assessing uncontrolled patients every 3 months and controlled patients every 6 months or more, but the disease is variable and can decompensate between visits. The Severe Asthma Unit now follows patients monthly with LOLA, adjustable to each patient, to recognise deterioration early: symptom control, risk of crises and any events that required emergency care.

Tucuvi helps us track the progression of the disease more closely. What we are doing is monitoring patients and detecting deterioration early. Now, we continuously know which patients are doing well and which are at high risk of crises or hospital admissions, something we couldn’t know before.
