Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • The main outcome will be a categorisation of SABA prescription in asthma patients.

    Mild asthma patients will be categorised into 5 groups according to the number of SABA and ICS prescriptions in the 12 months prior to their index date (initial exposure window): 1. No prescriptions for asthma inhalers 2. Appropriate SABA prescription with no ICS 3. Appropriate SABA prescription with ICS 4. SABA over-prescription with no ICS 5. SABA over-prescription with ICS Moderate/severe asthma patients will be categorised into 2 groups according to the number of SABA and ICS prescriptions in the 12 months prior to their index date: 1. Appropriate SABA prescription on top of maintenance therapy 2. SABA over-prescription on top of maintenance therapy

    12 months retrospective from index date

Study Population

The selection of sites and investigators will be made with the aim to achieve representativeness in the way asthma is managed in each participating country. The study will include patients from either primary care centres, or specialist centres involved in the management of asthma, or a mix of both within a country to ensure representativeness.

You may qualify if:

  • Male and female patients ≥12 years-old
  • Documented diagnosis with Asthma as per medical records.
  • Have had ≥3 consultations with the HCP at study start date
  • After full explanation, a patient or legal guardian must have signed an informed consent document indicating that they understand the purpose of and the procedures required for the study and are willing to participate in the study.

You may not qualify if:

  • Patient with a diagnosis of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease or other chronic respiratory disease different from Asthma.
  • An acute or chronic condition that, in the investigator's opinion, would limit the patient's ability to participate in this study
