Although asthma may be a prominent feature in many cases of terminal illness, it is often incorrectly named as the cause of death. It is difficult to assess asthma death in the older age groups where psychosocial factors are prominent. This review looks at the certification by general practitioners of 50 consecutive cases of asthma death.
