Intervention for ineffective airway clearance in asthmatic children : a controlled and randomized clinical trial . This study aimed to analyse the effectiveness of an intervention for the nursing diagnosis of ineffective airway clearance in asthmatic children . A blinded , randomized and controlled clinical trial was developed in a paediatric hospital located on northeast of Brazil with 42 asthmatic children aged ≤ 36 months . The children were randomly divided into two groups ( intervention and control ) by means of a simple drawing . The applied intervention included actions related to change of positioning and stimulation of cough . The main findings of this study show that before the intervention , no significant difference was observed in the health status of the children . After the intervention , the indicators of choking ( 16.83 vs. 26.17 , P = 0.007 ) and adventitious breath sounds ( 16.4 vs. 26.6 , P = 0.005 ) were higher , on average , in the intervention group . It was observed an improvement in obstructive symptoms in children who received the intervention proposed .
