ABSTRACT
Introduction:
today is clear the role of educational programs in the control of chronic diseases. The goal was optimize the knowledge, adhesion, inhalation technique and asthma control through an educational workshop.Methods:
we enrolled asthmatic patients (age 5 to 14 years), with questionnaire "control of asthma in children " (CAN). Patients with an score greater than or equal to 8 were invited to the educational workshop with a class of asthma, after a evaluation of knowledge and inhalation technique. These patients were reevaluated 6 months later.Results:
91 patients were recruited with a CAN score greater than or equal to 8, only 49 attended the workshop and 40 attended the reevaluation. Of these, 52,5 percent of the patients achieved a CAN score less than 8. Two patients were excluded because of modification of treatment, resulting in 47,5 percent of patients with CAN score less than 8.Conclusion:
the education improved the knowledge, inhalation technique and adherence. Educational workshop should be implemented in our clinical practice.RESUMEN
