“…There are numerous exposures in childhood that parents can only avoid by having access to specific kinds of information (Maslennikova et al 1998;Khan et al 1990; Mufiiz 1989). A good example is exposure to lead through the consumption of paint.…”

The socioeconomic and ethnic characteristics of parents are some of the most important correlates of adverse health outcomes in childhood. However, the relationships between ethnic, economic, and behavioral factors and the health outcomes responsible for this pervasive finding have not been specified in child health epidemiology. The general objective of this paper is to propose a theoretical approach to the study of maternal behaviors and child health in diverse ethnic and socioeconomic environments. The specific aims are: (a) to describe a causal pathway between the utility that women obtain through work outside the home and through child care and disease hazard rates in childhood using an optimization model; (b) to specify the influence of ethnic and socioeconomic factors on model constraints; (c) to use the model as a tool to learn about how different combinations of maternal wage labor and child care time might influence child health outcomes in diverse social contexts; (d) to identify parameters that will require measurement in future research; (e) to discuss research strategies that will enable us to obtain these measurements; and (f) to discuss the implications of the model for biostatistical modeling and public health intervention. Optimization models are powerful heuristic tools for understanding how ethnic, environmental, family, and personal characteristics can place important constraints on both the quality and quantity of care that women can provide to their children. They provide a quantitative appreciation for the difficult trade-offs that most women face between working in order to purchase basic goods that children cannot do without (e.g., food, clothing, shelter, health insurance), and increasing offspring well-being through child care (e.g., training in social skills, affection, protection from environmental hazards, help with homework).

“…Colland's study (18) also concluded that asthmatic children who followed a behavioral self-management program (consisting of 10 weekly 1-hour education sessions with a group of six to eight children) had a lower health care consumption. Other research also indicated that the implementation of an education program for asthmatic patients, which are mainly informative, resulted in a decline in the use of health care services (13,17,(19)(20)(21)(22). Consequently, on the basis of the current underlying study and other research, it can be concluded that education programs for asthmatics in general and nurse clinics for asthmatic children in particular result in a decline in asthmatic patients' use of health care services.…”

Content and Outcomes of Dutch Nurse Clinics for Children with Asthma

Dutch specialist asthma nurses run extramural and transmural nurse clinics for children with asthma. Extramural clinics are run under the responsibility and in the premises of a home care organization. Transmural clinics are run in an outpatient clinic in close collaboration and joint responsibility between home care organizations and hospitals. Effects of and differences between these clinics were determined by using a quasiexperimental design. Visiting a nurse clinic appears to result in a reduced information need and reduced use of health care services. Parents of asthmatic children visiting transmural nurse clinics appeared to have a lower information need than those attending extramural nurse clinics.
