Summary

Asthma is the most common chronic condition among children and many children seek emergency department (ED) care. A key aspect of ED asthma management at the time of discharge is appropriate outpatient referral. Part of the challenge for ED providers is determining which patients require intensive outpatient support as ED providers often do not have the time or familiarity with the asthma guidelines to appropriately stratify asthma severity. Thus, the aim of this study is to determine whether the proportion of children referred to outpatient asthma care can be improved by incorporating a previously validated tool \[the Pediatric Asthma Control and Communication Instrument for the Emergency Department (PACCI- ED)\] into ED clinical care.
