Breathing in Devon.

Devon county · 2 cards

Asthma recorded by GPs in Devon, and deaths from asthma.

Plain-English context

7.9% of patients aged 6 and over registered at GP practices in Devon were on the asthma register in 2024/25. This excludes patients with no asthma-related prescription in the previous 12 months. The age-standardised asthma death rate was 1.3 per 100,000 people per year, averaged across 2022–24. Register prevalence is not age-adjusted. The mortality rate is age-standardised, and rare events carry uncertainty.
