Bronchial asthma

Bronchial asthma is due to mucosal edema and stagnation of sputum.

To assess the severity of asthma, it is necessary to reconstruct the patient’s life through previous hospitalizations, feeding and fluid intake, therapy performed, and intolerance to specific medications. If it is severe asthma, it is necessary to subject the child to oxygen-fed aerosol and a series of laboratory tests such as chest X-ray, oxygen saturation with pulse oximeter in the presence of severe asthma, and hemogasanalysis in the presence of very severe broncho-constriction.

Regarding clinical monitoring, it is necessary to check the respiratory rate and heart rate every 4-6 hours and in severe cases recheck the score.
