Pediatric Asthma Work Group Recommendations
The Pediatric Asthma Work Group of NEPHMCC, which included particpation of more than 50 people from public health, health plans, and other organizations across New England, developed recommendations in June 2000. Entitled "Children with Asthma Can Lead Fully Active, Normal Lives," the goal of the recommendations is to "enhance the quality of life and reduce morbidity and mortality for children with symptomatic or inadequately controlled asthma." These recommendations are consistent with National Asthma Education and Prevention Program (NAEPP)/National Heart Blood and Lung Institute (NHBLI) guidelines.
