Abstract

Introduction: Bronchial asthma is the classic disease among allergic conditions and has a great impact on global health. It is a complex disease both genetically and phenotypically and genetic-environmental interactions make it even more complex.

Objective: To determine the risk factors associated with bronchial asthma in patients under 18 years of age in the family medical office number 9, in the municipality of Cruces, Cienfuegos.

Methods: Descriptive, observational, cross-sectional study in patients under 18 years of age who presented bronchial asthma, from October to December 2020, in the family doctor's office number 9, in the municipality of Cruces, Cienfuegos. The universe consisted of 26 patients and the non-probabilistic sample of 15 patients. The data were obtained from the medical records of the patients under study. Statistical processing was carried out using SPSS 21.0 for a better representation of the results.

Results: In the study, male sex and the age group from 14 to 18 years predominated with 66.67% and 40.00% respectively. 80% of the patients had a family history of bronchial asthma, while 66.67% did not have toxic habits. 66.67% had a healthy lifestyle.
