Severe asthma exacerbations in children

Early management by the family remains a recognized preventive measure for exacerbations, thanks to pediatric diagnosis and support, with specific physiological and developmental features for each age group. Various studies show that predicting the occurrence of an exacerbation is difficult. They underline the importance of ensuring that asthma control is achieved after an exacerbation, implying that the child should be systematically reviewed one month after an exacerbation. A randomized multicenter study would make a considerable contribution to the study of triggering factors and factors predictive of the severity of an attack in children.
