摘要
Asthma is a condition characterised clinically by recurrent episodes of wheeze, cough, and breathlessness, and physiologically by variable airflow obstruction. Airway inflammation is sometimes added to the definition, but it is rarely measured in clinical practice; some groups would consider episodic viral wheeze in preschool children as a separate condition. This review gives a practical perspective on the basic steps of diagnosis and management of asthma in school age children for non-specialists in primary and secondary care.
