    Author: Sherwood P.
    Journal: Nurs Times; ; 99(33):54-5. PubMed ID: 12953655.
    Abstract:
    Asthma is the most common chronic disease of childhood and ranks as the main reason for acute paediatric hospital admissions (Arshad, 2002). The overall prevalence of asthma in England and Wales is about eight to 10 per cent (National Institute for Clinical Excellence, 2000), with one in seven children aged between two and 15 in the UK having symptoms which require treatment (Rees and Kanabar, 2000).
