Lung health for kids
This App is an interactive lung health education tool for Indigenous children/families.
The App tells the story of four common respiratory conditions, Bronchiolitis, Pneumonia, Chronic Suppurative Lung Disease/Bronchiectasis, and Asthma and will also assist primary health providers and clinicians in providing culturally-appropriate lung health education to families.
Each respiratory condition is divided into different sections, including:
- about the lungs#
- description of the lung condition#
- signs and symptoms
- diagnosis
- treatment/management#
- prevention with a short quiz at the end of each section.
The App can be used without or with ‘voice-over’ in seven local Indigenous languages from the Northern Territory, Australia or English.
