Clinical syndrome of childhood asthma based on key indicators detection.

This study was conducted to investigate the clinical syndromes of asthma in children based on the detection of key indicators. A total of 50 children with asthma were selected based on the asthma diagnostic methods categorised according to cough, wheezing, sputum and wheezing sound. The levels of D-dimer (DD) and fibrinogen (Fg) in plasma and blood gas analysis were also measured. The diagnostic symptoms were divided into TCM diagnostic statistics and western medicine diagnostic scores. The analysis showed male children to be affected much more than female children, and the age of 2-5 years was more common. Blood tests showed that the plasma levels of DD and Fg in children with acute asthma increased significantly. The onset of asthma in children was closely related to history of allergy and family inheritance. More than half of the children had a history of allergy. Respiratory tract infection caused by cold air was the most important cause of asthma in children. Most children with asthma were febrile with cough (moderate to severe) and sputum. The syndromes in this study included wind-heat syndrome, lung-qi deficiency syndrome and wind-cold syndrome, which could lay a foundation for the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of asthma in children.
