Assessment of asthma control among different measures and evaluation of functional exercise capacity in children and adolescents with asthma

Abstract: Objetivo: Avaliar a concordância entre as medidas de controle da asma e a capacidade de exercício funcional em crianças e adolescentes com asma não controlada e controlada. Métodos: Selecionamos crianças e adolescentes com asma de 7 a 17 anos, que foram atendidos no Ambulatório de Pneumologia Pediátrica da Universidade Estadual de Campinas. Todos os pacientes tiveram nível de controle da asma avaliado pelo questionário da Global Initiative for Asthma (GINAq), Teste de Controle da Asma (TCA), espirometria e tes… Show more

“…This observation was also reported by these studies. [25][26][27] This might reflect a disassociation between a patient's asthma symptoms and their perception of those symptoms [5,18,28] or a temporal delay between changes in symptoms and spirometric values. [24] Moreover, asthma symptoms and LF parameters represent and assess different domains of asthma and they correlate poorly over time in an individual, so both need to be monitored and evaluated differently to assess asthma control in clinical practice.…”

“…Furthermore, the baseline level of asthma control of the study participants in this study differs from the aforementioned studies [30,31] which may play an important factor that influences the correlation between the asthma control and LF. Extensive literature reviews [5,[25][26][27][28][31][32][33] to date on the relationship between asthma control and LF has had varied reports. This is not surprising as these studies differed with respect to study design, measurement tool used, sample design, sample size, methodology, and statistical analysis; thus, direct comparisons may not be justifiable and will lack objectivity.…”

“…The treatment of severe asthma is currently a global problem [10]. Factors contributing to the lack of control of asthma include: failure to control exposure to environmental triggers (allergens, irritants, germs, smoking, and others), misuse of inhalers, poor adherence to therapy, presence of uncontrolled comorbidities, psychosocial and socioeconomic factors, genetic factors, phenotypic features [11]. Severe asthma is currently defined as the need for (not just prescription or use of) high-intensity treatment after appropriate treatment of modifiable factors and comorbidities [12].…”
