Brief Summary:
Asthma and COPD have a significant impact on public health, affecting about 8 million people in France and generating health care costs of 5.5 billion euros, almost 50% of which are dedicated to long-term treatments are essentially inhaled therapies.
The good control of the disease depends on the patient's compliance, but also on the proper use of the devices used for the administration of inhaled drugs under penalty of the degradation of the control of the disease with major medical and medico-economic consequences.
Thus, education of these patients in the use of devices must be an integral part of medical care. It comes up against the complexity of the therapeutic arsenal on the one hand and on the other hand with its time-consuming nature: this makes it incompatible with a realization in consultation.
The "ARGOS" process is a telemonitoring project for the support of therapeutic education, consisting in setting up a concrete and real-time relay between prescribers and patients for the education of inhaled therapeutics.
Its objective is to provide the answer to what is currently an "unmet need" in the management of asthma and COPD, with the prospect of a positive impact on the observance of these treatments and by consequently their clinical and economic efficiency.
