Abstract
Two children, both under the care of specialists for mild persistent asthma, flirted with mortality. One lost and one won the battle. A 16-year-old boy never received ICS therapy despite extensive airway inflammation and remodeling and died due to mismanagement of an asthma exacerbation. A 6-year-old girl developed iatrogenic Cushing's syndrome during 18 months of continuous treatment with high, FDA-unapproved doses of both ICS and INCS and nearly died during an adrenal crisis. The role of ICS under-treatment and over-treatment and the possibility that recommendations in asthma guidelines and information in FDA package labels could have prevented both outcomes are explored.
期刊介绍：
Pediatric Pulmonology (PPUL) is the foremost global journal studying the respiratory system in disease and in health as it develops from intrauterine life though adolescence to adulthood. Combining explicit and informative analysis of clinical as well as basic scientific research, PPUL provides a look at the many facets of respiratory system disorders in infants and children, ranging from pathological anatomy, developmental issues, and pathophysiology to infectious disease, asthma, cystic fibrosis, and airborne toxins. Focused attention is given to the reporting of diagnostic and therapeutic methods for neonates, preschool children, and adolescents, the enduring effects of childhood respiratory diseases, and newly described infectious diseases.
PPUL concentrates on subject matters of crucial interest to specialists preparing for the Pediatric Subspecialty Examinations in the United States and other countries. With its attentive coverage and extensive clinical data, this journal is a principle source for pediatricians in practice and in training and a must have for all pediatric pulmonologists.
