Impact of anxiety and depression on functional impairment in adolescents with asthma
2007, General Hospital PsychiatryCitation Excerpt :Morbidity and mortality due to asthma have increased in recent years, particularly among children and teenagers [1], suggesting the need for improving both control and prevention measures [2]. Numerous patient characteristics have been found to influence functional impairment and health utilization (emergency room and inpatient admissions) associated with asthma, including age, poverty, gender, psychosocial factors, psychiatric disorders and ethnicity [3–6]. Coexisting medical conditions such as allergic rhinitis and sinusitis have been shown to play a role in determining functional impairment in youth and adults with asthma, but the contribution of comorbid psychiatric conditions has received less attention.
