Overview

Prevalence study shows 3.5% of children with bronchial asthma have allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis, suggesting it may worsen asthma management.

Key Points

  • 3.5% of children with bronchial asthma were found to be ABPA positive, indicating a potential link between the two conditions.
  • Mean absolute eosinophil count in ABPA positive cases was significantly higher at 418.71 cells/cumm compared to others.
  • Diagnosis utilized multiple methods including skin tests and pulmonary function tests to identify ABPA cases.
  • Identifying ABPA in asthmatic children may provide insights for improved asthma management strategies.
