Childhood asthma is a common issue that affects many children in the U.S. Asthma is a manageable condition when patients and families are properly educated about the illness. Unintended ED (Emergency Department) visits are a rising problem resulting in a burden on patients, families, and the healthcare system. Asthma care plans have been suggested to be an effective management tool for patients and families, however, they require cooperation by the patients and families. Triggers can be easily managed if the plan is followed, reducing asthma attacks and visits to the ED. When care plans are followed, asthma symptoms can be controlled and deaths can be prevented.
