title: Assessing children's knowledge of asthma.
abstract: Although a wealth of educational materials is available, many children have a poor understanding of their asthma and its treatment. Nurses need training in teaching inhaler techniques. A teamwork approach, involving children, their parents, schools and health professionals would be an effective way of improving asthma care for children.
