Abstract

Wide variations in the prevalence of ASTHMA, ALLERGIC RHINITIS and ECZEMA have been reported in different regions and countries of the world. The International Study of ASTHMA and Allergies in Childhood (ISAAC) was developed to provide standardized method to ascertain the prevalence of ASTHMA and allergies in different regions. Comparisons of prevalence rates across geographical regions may help to identify factors that influence the development of these conditions in individuals. For doing this descriptive study the ISAAC written questionnaire was completed by 3000 schoolchildren aged 12-14 years in Kashan, the central area of Iran, with different geographic and cultural characteristics, during the fall in 1998. The overall cumulative and 12 month prevalence's of wheezing were 20.6%, 12.3% in the girls and 28.2%, 16.6% in the boys respectively. The prevalence's of doctor diagnosed ASTHMA were 1.6% and 1.8% in the girls and boys. Rhinitis symptoms were reported by 24.6%, 34.6% and chronic pruritic rashes by 8.1% and 11% of the girls and boys respectively.Allergic disorders are common in this area and prevalence is comparable to the other parts of Iran and many other countries. Prevalence of ASTHMA by medical diagnosis is relatively low with respect to the other studies performed with the same methodology.
