Any interested person may file written comments with the committee by forwarding the statement to the Contact Person listed on this notice. The statement should include the name, address, telephone number and when applicable, the business or professional affiliation of the interested person. Information is also available on the Institute's/Center's home page: https://www.nhlbi.nih.gov/​advisory-and-peer-review-committees/​national-asthma-education-and-prevention-program-coordinating,, where an agenda and any additional information for the meeting will be posted when available. A summary of the draft Asthma Guidelines will be posted to the website prior to the meeting. Public disclosure of the actual draft Guidelines, at this point in the process, risks the distribution of content, which includes recommendations for medical care, causing potential confusion among those for whom the guidelines are intended to assist. This would likely significantly frustrate implementation of final Guidelines expected to be released later this year.
