Abstract
Inhalation therapy has been one of the most important approach of treatment and management for asthma patients at pediatric age. Because, pathogenesis of asthma has been proved to be allergic inflammation in airway, and the consensus that treatment with inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) is the most useful strategy against inflammation has been achieved in these 10 to 20 years. It is important to obtain adequate inhalation techniques to attain maximum benefits from inhalation therapy for asthmatic patients at pediatric age, especially for infants. We explain how to utilize the section of Inhalation Devices (section10) in JPGL2008, and also described additional tips when using inhaler devices.
