Mismatching among guidelines, providers, and parents on controller medication use in children with asthma.
The authors sought to assess provider prescribing patterns for asthma controller medications and to assess how frequently parental reports of children's asthma controller medicine use were mismatched with provider recommendations. They found that mismatches between parental reports and provider intentions regarding how the child was supposed to use inhaled steroids occurred for half of the children. They recommended that efforts focus on ways to reduce these mismatches.
