Efficacy of synergistic nursing and flexible play-based approach in children with Bronchial Asthma

This retrospective study evaluated 120 children with bronchial asthma divided into a control group (routine nursing) and a study group (routine nursing plus synergistic care and flexible play-based interventions). The intervention focused on tripartite collaboration between medical staff, children, and families, utilizing age-specific games to reduce treatment-related anxiety, improve medication compliance, and provide education.

The study group showed significantly faster recovery times, including shorter durations of wheezing, cough, and hospitalization compared to the control group. Furthermore, participants experienced marked reductions in negative emotions (measured by SCARED and DSRSC scales) and improvements in quality of life (measured by AQLQ), suggesting the play-based model effectively bridges the gap between medical treatment and psychological well-being.

Family members of the study group reported a higher overall satisfaction rate (95.24%) compared to the control group (82.46%). The authors conclude that the synergistic, play-based nursing model is an effective and safe approach for enhancing clinical care, reducing emotional distress, and promoting active family engagement in pediatric asthma management.
