[Childhood asthma and sports in school: a survey of teachers of sports and physical education].
Exercise induced bronchial obstruction is very common in asthmatic children who represent at least 5% of the general paediatric population. 89 teachers of physical education at school replied to a questionnaire on asthma: 82% knew the existence of exercise induced asthma, all thought that asthmatics can do sport at school; however their knowledge of this disorder seemed insufficient to offer sporting activities in a satisfactory manner; the idea of asthma as a psychological disorder is well ingrained (61.6%), they felt that necessarily the bronchial obstruction should be noticed by the asthmatic (58%) and finally a significant proportion (29%) thought that they had never seen a child in an asthmatic crisis during their lessons. The majority (88%) were favourable to information on asthma given by an information film followed by a discussion.
