[Medico-social consequences of asthma in the adult. Information gathered from hospital consultation (author's transl)].
The socio-professional consequences of asthma are studied in 80 patients with more or less serious asthmatic conditions. The professional repercussions are important since 27% of the asthma patients who work have had important changes in their professional life due to their disease. Work interruptions are frequent and seem to be longer than for workers who belong to the primary and secondary sectors. The family consequences are more difficult to determine, however 17 out of 80 patients think that their disease has interfered in their relationship with their spouse.
