Nursing Care for Children With Bronchial Asthma

Bronchial asthma remains one of the most common chronic pathologies of childhood, requiring a comprehensive interdisciplinary approach to management. In recent years, more and more attention has been paid to the role of a nurse as a key link in the organization of care, training and prevention of exacerbations of the disease. This review summarizes current data on nursing strategies for managing children with asthma, including clinical, school-based, and community-based care models. The results of studies published in international scientific journals and open databases — such as PubMed Central, DOAJ, PLOS, Europe PMC, and BioMed Central — are analyzed, with a focus on nurse-led programs, the effectiveness of educational interventions, and the use of telemedicine technologies.

It is noted that the introduction of protocol nursing models helps to reduce the number of hospitalizations and emergency calls, improves the control of symptoms and the quality of life of patients. Nurses play a leading role in teaching inhalation techniques, developing self-management skills, and organizing prevention activities in schools and families. Additional attention is paid to the nutritional, behavioral and psychological aspects of care, as well as the role of digital technologies and artificial intelligence in personalizing surveillance.

The review highlights the need to standardize nursing protocols, train staff in international programs, and develop multidisciplinary teams. Integration of innovative technologies and educational approaches is considered as a key vector of future nursing care in children with bronchial asthma, ensuring the transition from episodic observation to continuous, individualized patient support.
