Abstract | OBJECTIVE: METHODS: Fifty-eight patients were divided into 2 groups: both were treated with anti-infective and symptomatic therapy, but JYHD was given additionally to patients in the treated group. Changes in clinical symptoms of RRI and asthma as well as the serum contents of IgA, IgG and IgM were observed. RESULTS: Compared with the control group, the frequency of respiratory infection occurred, duration of fever, cough and asthma sustained and time of antibiotics used were all lower significantly in the treated group (P < 0.05). The serum contents of IgA and IgG increased in the treated group after treatment, as compared with those before treatment and in the control group, all showed significant difference (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION: For children suffered from intractable bronchial asthma complicated RRI, application of JYHD in addition with the conventional treatment could prevent RRI effectively, so as th reduce the frequency of asthma attack and alleviate the severity of the disease.
