In this perspective, it seems relevant to gain insight into the patients\u2019 perspective on acute dyspnoea and the need for emergency admission.

Self\u2010management strategies such as medication, breathing exercises, distraction from breathing, and mental and physical relaxation in general were used to avoid hospital admission. The chronically ill patients saw the following ways to alternate course of disease to avoid admissions to the emergency department: easier access to specialised emergency medical care, medical supplies in the patient's home and making existing physical exercise programmes more accessible and interesting.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion and relevance to clinical
