Therapeutic education guide for asthmatic children

By Olfa Hammami

Asthma is currently the most common chronic disease affecting children. We set out to develop an educational program for our young outpatients with asthma. In our study, twenty-five patients were identified, with a median age of 82.8 4 months and a predominance of males. After optimized management including therapeutic education, avoidance of triggers, treatment of comorbidities and delivery of an action plan, improvement was noted, with c-ACT for under-12s and mean ACT becoming 21.5 and 21.4 respectively.Therapeutic education can be provided in a specialized facility called an asthma school, or in a confidential outpatient clinic.
