“Matria helped me identify my asthma triggers and avoid trips to the emergency room.”

Matria Asthma Management supports people with asthma to educate them about their chronic condition, improve their compliance with medication therapies and help them identify and avoid situations that trigger asthma episodes.

With a focus on prevention, our educational materials and respiratory specialty nurses help patients become more productive at work or school, improve their quality of life and reduce emergency room and physician office visits, all of which lower asthma-related healthcare costs. We help them:

  • Recognize the early symptoms of an asthma attack
  • Learn how to prevent an attack or what to do during an attack
  • Identify their specific "asthma triggers," such as dust, mold, cold air, cigarette smoke, allergies or exercise and how to manage those triggers (e.g., taking medication before exercise)
