Observation of montelukast sodium in the treatment of children with cough variant asthma / 中国基层医药

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the clinical effect of montelukast sodium in the treatment of cough vari-ant asthma in children,to provide reference for clinical treatment.Methods 128 cases of children with cough variant asthma were randomly divided into observation group and control group of 64 cases.The control group with routine measures for the treatment of asthma in children for treatment,the observation group in the control group based on the treatment regimen,plus montelukast sodium chawing treatment.The changes of the two groups were compared after 12 weeks of treatment,the clinical efficacy and lung function indexes before and after treatment.Through 6 months of follow -up,the recurrence of the disease between the two groups after treatment.Results The effective rate in the observation group was 43.75%,the total effective rate was 93.75%,which were significantly higher than those of the control group (χ2 =4.53,P <0.05);the two groups after treatment of FEV1 ,FVC,FEV1 /FVC,PEF and PEF during the day at night were significantly higher than those before treatment (t =4.11,3.23,3.82,5.12,3.12,5.54,4.31, 4.98,6.22,4.45,all P <0.05);After treatment,the FEV1 [(3.08 ±0.43)L],FVC[(3.89 ±0.52)L],FEV1 /FVC [(75.95 ±6.51)%],PEF day[(3.24 ±0.91 )L/s],PEF for the night[(3.51 ±1.01 )L/s]of the observation group were significantly higher than those of the control group (t =3.67,3.10,3.43,2.92,3.01,all P <0.05);The recurrence rate of the observation group was 3.13%,which was significantly lower than that of the control group (χ2 =4.82,P <0.05).Conclusion The clinical efficacy of montelukast can significantly improve cough variant asthma in children,improve children's lung function,reduce the recurrence rate of cough variant asthma.
