Abstract
Pediatric asthma afflicts nearly 9 million children in the United States and is considered one of the most chronic conditions of childhood. According to The Children's Health Fund (2006), children with asthma have 65% more acute care visits, three times as many prescriptions, and double the number of inpatient hospital days than the general pediatric population.
