Allergic Rhinitis Improvement in Asthmatic Children After Using Acaricidal Bait: A Randomized, Double-Blind, Cross-Placebo Study

Abstract: Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the effects of acaricidal bait use on the house dust mite (HDM) allergen concentration and occurrence of allergic rhinitis (AR) and asthma symptoms in children sensitized to HDMs.Study Design: Sixty-six children (3–12 years old) with AR and asthma sensitized to HDMs were randomly assigned to receive an acaricidal bait intervention for 8 weeks and a placebo intervention for 8 weeks separated by a 4-week washout period. The visual analog scale (VAS) score, rhinitis control… Show more

“…Similar findings were reported by Kneist et al 1708 . Using a crossover study design, Chen et al 1716 . investigated an acaricide containing bag placed beneath bed mattresses in children with AR and asthma, reporting improved AR symptom scores and disease specific QOL (measured using the RQLQ) for those in the intervention group compared to control.…”

“…The studies analyzed had different outcome measures and the measures were tested considering different allergens. House dust mite (HDM) was the most common allergen sensitization and most measures were designed to control HDM exposure [14,15,17,21,23,24,[26][27][28][29][30][31]. Out of the 18 studies, 5 of them had participants with ages ranging from 6 to 16 years old [17,18,24,29,30].…”
