Associations of inhaler technique, medication adherence, and parental illness perception on asthma control in childhood: a cross-sectional observational study
Despite favorable control scores, incorrect inhaler use and suboptimal adherence remain challenges. Parental perceptions and sociodemographic factors, particularly education and financial well-being, significantly influence outcomes. Findings underscore the need for family-centered educational strategies to improve pediatric asthma management.
