A significant proportion of asthma patients remain inadequately controlled despite effective treatments available. The purpose of this study was to acknowledge the current economic and health burden of uncontrolled asthma in the United States as well as project future potentially preventable economic and health burden associated with uncontrolled asthma over the next 20 years.

This study included adults and adolescents aged ≥15 years in the United States. People with asthma were separated into controlled versus uncontrolled asthma using their Asthma Control Test (ACT) score.

To project burden over a 20-year timespan (2019–2038), researchers used a probabilistic …
