Abstract:  Objective To evaluate the treatment efficacy of the treatment promotion of standardized management for children with asthma. Methods Medical records of 150 children with asthma were reviewed and divided into management group or control group according to whether standardized management was accepted. Comprehensive asthma education for asthma patients and their parents including asthma associated basic knowledge education, health education as well as follow-ups at defined intervals was conducted in 78 cases. In the meantime, standardized asthma therapies were performed. Control group involved 72 cases who did not receive asthma education managements and only accepted regular clinical therapies. After 1-year observational follow-up, , clinical efficacy of children with asthma, changes of knowledge-attitude-practice of parents, and compliance of medication were compared between the two groups. Results After promotion of standardized managements treatment, asthma control rates in the management group were significantly higher than that of the control group ( χ2=54.68, P<0.01); In addition, the rate of asthma attacks, emergency visits as well as hospitalizations were obviously reduced in the management group than control group (both with P<0.01). Knowledge associated with asthma, therapy and management executions as well as knowledge-attitude- practice of parents also demonstrated apparent elevations in the management group (P<0.01); At the same time, management group has illustrated superior medication compliance over the control group ( χ2=66.27, P<0.01). Conclusion Promotion of standardized treatment management among children with asthma can help to achieve effective control by raising levels of knowledge- attitude-practice of the parents as well as the patient’s compliance to the treatment.
