Acute exacerbation of asthma (AEBA) : Classification
Classification of acute exacerbation of asthma is based on the severity. This classification is important to determine the management, for example, wether the patient should be treated in the red zone or yellow zone/asthma bay, wether the patient can be discharge home or have to be admitted in ward or ICU, or wether the patient need ventilation support or not.
