Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |

| Total Symptom Score (Primary Symptom Score + Secondary Symptom Score);Time of disappearance of clinical symptoms and signs (time until resolution of cough, wheezing, and stridor);Pulmonary function: For children under 5 years old, measure the peak expiratory flow volume ratio (VPEF/VE), peak expiratory time ratio (TPTEF/TE), tidal volume (VT), and respiratory rate (RR) during tidal breathing. For children 5 years old and above, measure the forced expiratory volume in the first second (FEV1), the percentage of the predicted value of FEV1 (FEV1%), and the ratio of FEV1 to the forced vital capacity (FEV1/FVC).;Recurrence rate; | — |
