Abstract: Bronchial asthma is a chronic respiratory disorder with significant
psychosomatic implications, particularly in pediatric patients. This study evaluates
the psychological impact of asthma on children’s quality of life using validated
tools, the Pediatric Asthma Quality of Life Questionnaire (PAQLQ) and
Children’s Depression Inventory (CDI-2). A cross-sectional study of 26 pediatric
asthma patients in Tashkent examined asthma duration, attack frequency,
medication adherence, and emotional distress. Statistical analysis revealed a
strong correlation between asthma duration and increased anxiety (r = 0.73,
p<0.001) and fatigue (r = 0.81, p<0.001). Additionally, 12 children often and 6
always experience breathing difficulties, and 22 report frequent school absences
due to asthma symptoms. The findings suggest that pediatric asthma significantly
affects psychological well-being, leading to increased stress, social withdrawal,
and emotional distress. This study emphasizes the need for integrating
psychological interventions such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT),
mindfulness techniques, and structured emotional support programs in asthma
management. By highlighting the connection between asthma and psychosomatic
health, this research supports a holistic, multidisciplinary approach for better
asthma control and overall well-being.
