How to inhale asthma medication correctly

  Asthma is a chronic airway inflammatory disease and the goal of asthma treatment as defined by GINA 2006 is to achieve and maintain long-term control of asthma. To achieve this goal, adherence to long-term correct medication use is key. In our long-term outpatient work, we often find that some children have good medication compliance but their disease control is not ideal. The reason for this is that many children have not mastered the correct medication inhalation method, making the medication inhalation dose insufficient or even not acting at all on the critical area. Therefore, it is the clinician’s unshirkable responsibility to promote the correct method of drug inhalation. The following are some videos from the Internet that provide guidance on drug inhalation, which I hope will be helpful for the treatment of children with asthma.
