Connect, Engage: Televisits for Children With Asthma During COVID-19 and After
Insights
Children with asthma need consistent care, which televisits can provide despite pandemic challenges. These virtual visits assess symptoms, reinforce education, and guide treatment, ensuring uninterrupted asthma management.
Area of Science:
- Pediatrics
- Respiratory Medicine
- Health Informatics
Background:
- Children with asthma face significant barriers to consistent medical care.
- The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has exacerbated these barriers.
- Asthma management requires regular follow-up and access to care.
Purpose of the Study:
- To provide guidelines for implementing televisits for pediatric asthma care.
- To ensure uninterrupted asthma management during the COVID-19 pandemic.
- To offer practical tools for successful virtual healthcare delivery.
Main Methods:
- The study outlines the utility of televisits in pediatric asthma care.
- It details how televisits can assess symptom control and patient education.
- Guidance is provided for determining appropriate treatment options via televisits.
Main Results:
- Televisits offer a practical solution to maintain asthma care continuity.
- Virtual visits can effectively evaluate symptom control and reinforce asthma education.
- Treatment adjustments can be determined through remote consultations.
Conclusions:
- Televisits are a viable strategy for providing uninterrupted asthma care to children.
- Implementing televisits can overcome barriers exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic.
- This approach supports ongoing asthma management and patient education.
Abstract:
Despite the many barriers to receiving care, children with asthma must have access to regular care and frequent follow-up visits. The usual barriers to the provision of asthma care have been made even more complicated by the current coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic. To minimize the disruption of care due to the necessary constraints dictated by coronavirus disease 2019, the televisit provides a practical solution that can assess the child's current level of symptom control, reinforce asthma education, and determine treatment options. This article provides the tools and guidelines to facilitate the implementation of successful televisits to provide uninterrupted care for children with asthma.

Asthma: Pathogenesis and Management
Asthma is classified as allergic and non-allergic. Allergens such as dust mites, pollen, and pet dander trigger allergic asthma, while factors like cold air, intense emotions, or exercise can induce non-allergic asthma.
