Effective management of asthma will improve pediatric patient quality of life. This may be achieved through the prevention of asthma exacerbations by continuous pediatric and guardian/parent education to proper inhaler technique, appropriate medication management and the avoidance of environmental triggers. These modalities may prevent trips to the emergency department, hospital admissions and the pediatric patient can avoid missing days from school.
