ABSTRACT
Research during the last decade has improved asthma management from a one size fits all protocol to management based on phenotype classification and characterisation of the inflammatory endotype. In the last two years, the treatable traits approach has developed into a comprehensive management strategy using substantial characteristics of the endotyping of asthma patients. The current knowledge regarding treatable traits has divided asthma management into three parts: pulmonary traits, extra-pulmonary traits and behaviours/risk factors. Future developments will likely be based on these categories.
