Understanding decision-making and educational need in the management of pediatric patients with moderate-to-severe asthma: analysis of a US-based clinician survey.

Asthma creates a substantial burden on the pediatric healthcare system, particularly by those with moderate-to-severe disease. As few studies have been published specific to clinician evaluation and management of this population, this analysis serves to begin to identify educational needs and potential clinical impact. We conducted a case-based survey of US general pediatric ( = 227), allergy ( = 158), and pediatric pulmonology ( = 70) clinicians to understand the current approach to management of pediatric patients with moderate-to-severe asthma.
