Non-Pharmacologic Interventions for Asthma During Pregnancy
Our review suggests that non-pharmacological healthcare interventions including education, self-management, progressive muscle relaxation and periodic follow-up may optimize asthma management in pregnancy. Interventions that enable pregnant women to be monitored regularly using objective measures of lung function or asthma symptoms appear to be more effective in improving health outcomes during pregnancy.
