Asthma is a common chronic disease in children. Uncontrolled asthma is a significant contributor to school absenteeism, emergency room visits, and hospitalization, all of which can lead to low school performance, financial burdens, and emotional problems for children and their parents. Asthma in children restricts the activities of school-aged children, such as participating in before- and after-school activity and extracurricular activities such as sports. Uncontrolled asthma has the potential to impact a student's self-confidence and social interactions. This article reviews the physical, emotional, and social burden of asthma on school-aged children/parents as well as recounting school asthma intervention programs. One of the roles of the school nurse is to be the leader of the intervention programs, manage asthma, and provide education for the students, parents, and school community to promote knowledge about asthma and its management.
哮喘是儿童常见的慢性疾病。未得到控制的哮喘是导致儿童缺课、急诊就诊和住院的重要原因,所有这些都会导致儿童学业成绩低下、经济负担加重以及儿童及其父母出现情绪问题。儿童哮喘限制了学龄儿童的活动,比如参加课外前后的活动以及体育等课外活动。未得到控制的哮喘有可能影响学生的自信心和社交互动。本文综述了哮喘给学龄儿童/父母带来的身体、情感和社会负担,以及讲述了学校哮喘干预项目。学校护士的职责之一是成为干预项目的负责人,管理哮喘,并为学生、家长和学校社区提供教育,以增进对哮喘及其管理的了解。
