Asthma malfunctions may affect measurements and observation for the respiratory system by making it difficult to discern a respiratory issue other than asthma. Because asthma has such control over the respiratory system when a patient is in the throws of an asthma attack, malfunctions and other issues can occur and go unnoticed.

a person with asthma will usually have low and variable peak flow readings over several days. Peak flow readings improve when the narrowed airways are opened up with treatment. Regular peak flow readings can be used to help assess how well treatment is working.

What are all the types of asthma and which type is the worst and most risky and which type is non-risky?

There is mild asthma right through to severely uncontrolled asthma. Asthma comes in 5 stages. Stages 1-2 are controlled asthma and stage 4-5 are severe asthma needing extra preventitive treatment to control it and reduce asthma attacks. Each stage of asthma is risky when having a asthma attack. But the more severe or the less controlled the asthma is, the higher the risk associated with yourself of having a severe asthma attack.
