Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Assessing the change in lung functions

    The spirometer will be used for assessment of lung functions including total lung capacity (TLC) (litre), which is the most widely used functional index in the asthma follow up.

    at baseline and after 6 weeks of intervention

  • Assessing the change in symptoms of asthma

    The Asthma Control Test provides a numerical score to help you and your healthcare provider determine if your asthma symptoms are well controlled. Take this test if you are 12 years or older. Share the score with your healthcare provider.
