They were divided into observation group and control group by random number table method, 96 cases in each group. The control group was given routine health education based on oral education, while observation group was additionally given multimedia intervention. Both groups were continuously intervened for 4 weeks. After intervention, treatment compliance was evaluated. The health behaviors and quality of life before and after intervention in both groups were recorded. Both groups were followed up after 6 months of intervention. The number of cases with acute asthma attacks, and number of re-admission and hospitalization cases due to asthma in both groups were statistically analyzed.Results:The compliance of observation group was significantly better than that of control group in terms of quantitative medication on time, inhaler usage and recording asthma diary ( Z values were 9.809, 10.082, 10.287, P<0.05). After intervention, health behaviors such as keeping away from allergens, medication following doctor's advice, paying attention to keep warm, diet control, exercise training and inhaler usage in observation group were significantly higher than those in control group ( χ 2 values were 5.169-19.006, P<0.05). After intervention, scores of symptoms, activities and emotion, and total score of Pediatric Asthma Quality of Life Questionnaire (PAQLQ) in observation group were (48.52±7.46), (25.16±4.83) (110.32±20.64) and (36.57±5.64) points, significantly higher than (42.17±7.12), (18.65±3.72), (29.86±5.48) and (85.06±16.23) points in control group ( t values were 6.146-10.463, P<0.05). During follow-up, the incidence rates of acute asthma attack, re-admission and re-hospitalization due to asthma in observation group were 21.89% (20/91), 15.38% (14/91), 9.89% (9/91), which were lower than 39.33% (35/89), 23.58% (29/89), 25.84% (23/89) in control group ( χ 2 values were 6.381, 7.321, 7.833, P<0.05). Conclusion:The multimedia combined health education manuals can effectively improve treatment compliance, health behaviors and quality of life in asthma children, and reduce incidence of asthma related events.
