Results—Children in the intervention
group were significantly less likely to be
readmitted to hospital in the next six
months than those in the control group (12
of 80 v 30 of 80 patients), and significantly
less likely to attend the A&E department
(6 of 80 v 31 of 80). Significantly fewer
children in the intervention group had
visits to their general practitioner for
problematic asthma (31 of 78 v 72 of 77 for
whom data were available).
