Asthma Facts and Information
Online, November 21, 2011 (Newswire.com) - The American Academy of Allergy Asthma and Immunology (AAAI) has proudly won an international award from one of the most respected institutions around the world. Marcom Awards, a competition that highlight the marketing and communication expertise of distinguished companies, organizations, and individuals, has given AAAI one of their prestigious Gold Awards for 2011. The Academy has dominated the "Websites/Associations" category among thousands of entrees.
The website of The American Academy of Allergy Asthma and Immunology (http://www.aaai.org or http://www.asthmatips.org) was indeed a cutthroat contender. The site features highly informative content on allergies, asthma, and immunology. From the most up-to-date statistics on related health conditions, down to their Library section, immediate information that you will ever need about allergies and asthma are readily available on the site. Most of The Library articles are also offered in Spanish version to accommodate non-native English speakers who may want to find valuable information about asthma and allergies. They also have a Conditions Dictionary that has an alphabetical list of terms that were defined in a very clear and concise approach. Aside from an online resource, the group has also published The Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology (JACI), which is currently considered one of the most reliable and updated journal for allergy, and clinical immunology among healthcare professionals. Their monthly publication serves as the printed platform for the most recent studies and medical innovation in the field of allergy as well as clinical immunology.
One striking facet of this science-based site is its overall conceptual creativity and functionality. A "Just for Kids" page was integrated for children who may be suffering from similar respiratory conditions. The page contains puzzles, online games, and video clips that will help kids cope and manage their allergies and asthma problems. Parents from around the world can instantly find health experts in their country by simply using an online expert finder interface. US residents may simply key in their postal code or state and the system automatically generates the names and contact numbers of nearby healthcare professionals who have been recognized fellows in the industry.
Aside from educating and helping families of those suffering from asthma and other similar respiratory problems, AAAI has gone the extra mile of further educating doctors and other health experts around the world. A page was especially dedicated for medical professionals to ask their questions, or convey unusual medical cases that they may have encountered in their practice. Medical groups from different countries have found this as a perfect medium to expand the limits of their knowledgebase and find scientific answers to questions that may be similar to their unique medical encounters.
With almost 300 million allergy and asthma patients worldwide, having a site like asthmatips.org has just made this challenging medical endeavour a bit of a breeze. With all the exceptional features and the creative integrations that have been incorporated by the AAAI Team to their site, everyone would agree that these experts have lived up to their professional dictum as medical professionals - the dictum of serving the public in all channels possible, even those that are way beyond their physical reach.
