The methods used in this study include interviews, observation, physical examination and documentation studies. After nursing care for 2x24 hours, the results showed that client 1 and client 2 could achieve the criteria for increased effective cough results, decreased sputum production, decreased wheezing, decreased rongkhi, decreased dyspnea, respiratory rate 16-20 x/minute, and improved breathing patterns. Nursing care can be continued by providing education to patients and families about patient care at home, providing information about exposures that can trigger asthma attacks, always maintaining personal and environmental hygiene, recommending regular drinking of warm water, practicing effective coughing techniques, and paying attention to cough etiquette.
