Usherwood T P and Barber J H. Audit of process and outcome in a mini-clinic for children with asthma. Family Practice 1988; 5: 289–293.

A mini-clinic for the management of children with asthma was started in a general practice, and 31 children aged between five and 14 years were invited to attend. Thirty-one age and sex matched asthmatics were recruited for comparison from a neighbouring practice. There was evidence of only slight improvement in outcome among the children attending the mini-clinic, although they required considerably more respiratory consultations than the children in the comparison practice. These observations, and the methodology, are discussed.
