Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to define the standard use of TCM treatment regimen as the TCM cohort group and the non-TCM cohort group of those who use conventional Western medicine treatment without the standard TCM treatment regimen through a multi-center, large-sample prospective cohort study design. To evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of TCM treatment regimens in the treatment of bronchial asthma, and to provide high-quality evidence for the promotion and application of TCM syndrome differentiation treatment in bronchial asthma.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Asthma control rate
According to the composite indicators such as symptoms, medication and pulmonary function test results, the clinical control level of asthma was divided into complete control, partial control and uncontrolled, and the asthma control rate of patients was evaluated according to the clinical control level of asthma.
The follow-up period was followed up every 3 months for 1 year.
Secondary Outcomes (12)
Number of exacerbations
The follow-up period was followed up every 3 months for 1 year.
Asthma exacerbation severity
The follow-up period was followed up every 3 months for 1 year.
Change in severity of chronic persistent disease
The follow-up period was followed up every 3 months for 1 year.
The dose used by glucocorticoids
The follow-up period was followed up every 3 months for 1 year.
Rapid-acting beta2 agonists use drugs and doses
The follow-up period was followed up every 3 months for 1 year.
- +7 more secondary outcomes
Study Arms (2)
Traditional Chinese Medical cohort
The standardized use of TCM treatment regimen was regarded as an exposure factor, and the treatment methods of the enrolled patients were defined and grouped: patients who took medication continuously for more than 3 months per year, or who took medication intermittently for more than 6 months in the total time of the year, were in the exposure group.
Non Traditional Chinese Medical cohort
Those who used conventional Western medicine treatment without using standardized Chinese medicine treatment regimen were in the non-exposure group.
