Caractéristiques des consultations pour exacerbation d'asthme aux urgences pédiatriques. Évaluation et perspectives pour une amélioration de la gestion pré-hospitalière

This study uncovers poor knowledge of the disease among asthmatic children and their families, and an insufficient awareness among health practitioners of current recommendations for the treatment of asthmatic children. Admissions to the emergency department for asthma could be partly avoided by improving diagnosis and therapeutic education.
