  • Title: Trends in hospital admission rates and drug treatment of asthma in New Zealand.
    Author: Jackson RT, Mitchell EA.
    Journal: N Z Med J; 1983 Sep 28; 96(740):728-30. PubMed ID: 6577353.
    Abstract:
    Trends in hospital admission rates from asthma and sales of anti-asthma drugs in New Zealand for the past two decades were examined. In this period there has been a marked increase in hospital admissions for asthma and in sales of anti-asthma medications. These findings and the recently reported increase in asthma mortality in New Zealand indicate that asthma is an important health problem in this country.
