Abstract:
Based on the completion of literature search, evaluation, and summary, the Intervention Program for the Preventive Treatment of Pediatric Asthma is developed through intra-group consultation with experts, expert validation meeting, expert steering group review, as well as opinion solicitation from external experts and online users, which proposes the terminology and definition of the intervention program for the preventive treatment of pediatric asthma. In addition, this document also clarifies the epidemiology, etiology and pathogenesis, screening, diagnosis, staging, constitution differentiation, intervention program, and follow-up monitoring. On top of that, the proposed protocol aims to standardize the intervention measures for the preventive treatment of pediatric asthma via providing clinicians with strategies and methods for standardizing the preventive treatments of disease in pediatrics, combined with improving the technical standardization and scientific research of the preventive treatments of disease in pediatrics. Thus, it can be used as a vital reference for the technical standardization and quality evaluation of the preventive treatment of diseases in departments of traditional Chinese medicine, pediatrics, child healthcare, pneumology, as well as centers for preventive treatment of disease.
