| contents | Current Asthma Management Practices By Primary School Teaching Staff: A Systematic Review Caruana, Maria West, Lorna M. Cordina, Maria Diseases Chronic Illness Child Health Intervention Teacher Attitudes Knowledge Level Exercise Physiology Parent School Relationship Educational Legislation Educational Environment Student Needs Elementary School Teachers Teacher Role Elementary School Students Background: The likelihood of children with asthma experiencing an exacerbation at school is significantly high when considering that they spend a substantial part of their day at school. This study, therefore, aimed to systematically review the literature to determine current asthma management practices by primary school teaching staff and any existing supporting legislation/policies/guidelines. Methods: Search terms were adapted to search literature across databases: CINAHL, Cochrane Library, Education Database--ProQuest, IPA, MEDLINE, SCI. Primary research studies, reviews, systematic reviews, and meta-analyses in English about primary school teaching staff dated between 2007 and 2017 were included. Primary outcomes comprised teaching staff' practices regarding asthma management and supporting guidelines, policies, or legislation. Results: Analysis of the 13 papers eligible for full review identified that: teachers were unable to deal with an asthma exacerbation; they lacked knowledge regarding exercise-induced asthma and that there was poor communication between schools and parents of children with asthma. The only documented relevant asthma legislation found pertained to New York schools. Conclusions: Limited evidence regarding asthma management practices and inadequate asthma management knowledge amongst teaching staff highlight the need for supporting teaching staff with asthma policies and guidelines to minimize risks associated with inappropriate asthma management. |
