    Using Predictive Scoring Systems for Asthma Exacerbations Could Help Safely Conserve Resources During the COVID-19 Pandemic
    (American Association for Respiratory Care (AARC), 2020-09-01) Davis, Michael D.; Pediatrics, School of Medicine
    Further studies evaluating the usefulness of mPIS for predicting outcomes in pediatric patients who are experiencing asthma exacerbations would also be beneficial during these times. These benefits could easily expand beyond the pediatric asthma population to all age groups and other patients with exacerbation-prone respiratory diseases, such as cystic fibrosis and COPD. These and other predictive tools could help us safely conserve respiratory health care resources and give the best care we can to our patients as we continue to adapt to the pandemic
