Data Sources: Initial searches of journal articles were performed on the
Pubmed, Science Direct, and Google Schollar search databases from
2017-2021 with the keyword Asthma self management education. The
ASME study found 807 articles but only 7 journal articles that met the
search inclusion criteria.
Review Methods: A literature review procedures were used to collect
library data, reading and taking notes, as well as critical assessment of
managing research materials
Results: According to the results of the literature review, ASME has
several variants with an average duration of ASME being carried out for 6
months to 15 months. Asthma control is measured to assess lung function
and behavioral changes in individuals with asthma. The ASME technique
is effective as an educational method in improving lung function, asthma
