Comparison of curative effect of two treatment methods in children with bronchial asthma

Abstract

Objective To investigate curative effect in children with bronchial asthma by two treatment methods. Methods 100 children with bronchial asthma,according to the different treatment were divided into treatment group 50 cases and control group(50 cases). The first seconds vital capacity(FEV1),peak expiratory flow (PEF) ,vital capacity 25% of the instantaneous velocity (V75), vital capacity 50% of the instantaneous velocity (V50) ,vital capacity 75% of the instantaneous velocity(V25) and their percentage the percentage of predicted value were observed. Results Total effective of 43 cases(86.0%) in treatment group after treatment 4 weeks were higher than that in control group of 28 cases (56. 5 %) (x~2 = 3. 987, P ＜ 0.05); The percentage of FEV1 and PEF in two groups after treatment 12 weeks were significantly higher than that before treatment(x~2 = 4. 01,4. 21,4. 31,4. 08, all P ＜ 0.05), but it between the two groups was not statistically significant (x~2 = 2. 31,2. 41, all P ＞ 0.05); The pulmonary function of V75 、V50、V25 in two groups after treatment 12 weeks reached projected value of more than 90% ;The pulmonary function of V75 、V50、V25 after treatment compared with those before treatment were improved significantly (x~2 =4.285,4.234,4.311,4.278,all P＜0.05). Conclusion The curative effect of bronchial asthma were confirmed in two methods,but treatment group were better than the control group. Key words: Asthma; Pulmonary function
