Summary:Some children present with chronic cough which may, or may not, be asthma. [...]in the next article, “Contemplating Chronic Cough in Children,” Drs. Zara Arain and Oren Lakser outline chronic cough in children and when to consider asthma in this patient population; the authors also provide an alternate diagnosis for cough. [...]asthma management is not without controversies. In the final article, “Controversies in Pediatric Asthma,” Drs. Tregony Simoneau and Michelle M. Cloutier review some of these issues such as written asthma action plans, the use of school nurses, the need (or not) of spirometry and peak flow meters, and the use of long-acting beta2-agonists in pediatric asthma care.
