Résumé
This is a summative review of recent trends and novel programming integrated into various clinical settings (i.e. emergency departments, urgent care centres and paediatric clinics) to enhance the quality of care received by paediatric asthma patients Asthma is the most common chronic disease in paediatric patients and despite recognized national management guidelines, implementation and aftercare, especially in the emergency room, remain challenging. Outcome-based systematic quality improvement initiatives are described as well as evidence-based recommendations to enhance the education of providers, patients and caregivers. Many of the care initiatives described in the literature have been integrated into the emergency room. The authors feel some of these process improvements, such as pathway-based care, reducing time to delivery of medications, and personalized asthma education, may also be applicable and add value to clinical practice in additional community-based acute care settings such as urgent care centers and paediatric clinics.
