Abstract

Structured PR for pediatric patients with asthma can improve 6MWT distance and FEV1 as well as subjective measures of SOB and QOL, suggesting a role for PR in the chronic management of pediatric asthma. Further prospective investigation is needed to determine if PR has positive effects on other clinical parameters of asthma control and its overall impact on childhood obesity.
