Integrated physician-Nursing and radiological Approaches in Managing Adult Patients with Combined Allergic Rhinitis and Asthma Syndrome (CARAS)

Abstract

Combined Allergic Rhinitis and Asthma Syndrome (CARAS) represents a major clinical challenge due to the interconnected nature of upper and lower airway diseases. Traditional management often isolates allergic rhinitis and asthma treatment, leading to fragmented and inefficient care. This review emphasizes the necessity of an integrated approach involving physicians, nurses, and radiologists to ensure comprehensive diagnosis, effective management, and improved outcomes for adult patients with CARAS. By combining clinical expertise, patient education, and advanced imaging techniques, healthcare systems can achieve better disease control, enhance quality of life for patients, and reduce healthcare costs. The review elaborates on the specific contributions of each discipline and proposes an integrated care model that highlights interprofessional collaboration.
