Abstract:
Asthma is a common chronic pulmonary disease in children,and most of the children with asthma can be well controlled after standardized treatment. But there are some children with difficult-to-treat asthma in cli-nical,although the high dose of glucocorticoid atomization inhalation treatment,the clinical symptoms are still not well controlled. These children with difficult-to-treat asthma not only bring huge economic pressure to families,but also have irreversible lung function impairment and their quality of life as the disease progresses. Therefore,pediatricians need to identify the difficult-to-treat asthma,understand its etiology,and give appropriate treatment to improve the prognosis of these patients.
