“…The Asthma Predictive Index (API) is a clinical tool used to evaluate a wheezing preschooler's risk of later asthma. After providing information on the number of wheezing episodes, parental asthma, current eczema, rhinitis, and eosinophilia, the treating doctor obtains either a positive or negative result that indicates the likelihood of their patient developing asthma and can use it as a basis for treatment based on the GINA guidelines [132]. mAPI, the modified Asthma Predictive Index, is even more accurate compared to API in predicting asthma correctly when obtaining a positive result, with the addition of criteria such as parent's allergy to airborne allergen and patient's allergy to foods such as egg, milk, or peanuts [133].…”
