The data deficit for asthma emergency presentations might surprise you: how RAHDaR addresses the data chasm.

CONCLUSION: The RAHDaR database, a complete register of data, captures all emergency presentations in south-western Victoria and highlights as much as a 33% deficit in the data currently available to inform asthma resource initiatives including policy development, funding allocation, prevention and management initiatives in Victoria. More accurate data from sources such as RAHDaR are essential to fill the now-evident data chasm. PMID: 32326717 [PubMed - in process]
