Abstract

Asthma is a disease that continues to increase, causing disabilities. Its origin is multifactorial,which complicates its study. The monetary expenses that derive from trying to control it have a high cost in terms of billions of dollars. this disease is not exclusive to childhood, the continuous exposition to substances of young people within their home can lead to develop the disease causing
deterioration in the quality of life. In the present study, 361 university students from 3 professional programs in a Higher Education Institution in Barranquilla were surveyed in order to determine which factors could trigger the disease. In the statistical analysis, the Chi Square test, p value and ODD ratio were performed. In the results, it was found that the factors that could probably predispose to the appearance of this disease are: the use of detergents, presenting strong emotions and contact with smoke.
