Question 1

In the past 4 weeks, did you:
a.
Miss any work, school, or normal daily activity because of your asthma?
b.
Wake up at night because of asthma?
c.
Believe that your asthma was well controlled?

Question 2

Do you use an inhaler for quick relief from asthma symptoms?
If yes, in the past 4 weeks, what was the highest
number of puffs in 1 day
you took of the inhaler?

The control domain is 1 domain of the ATAQ instrument. Other disease management domains are included in the complete instrument.

* These numbers reflect a lower threshold than was used in the ATAQ validation studies to identify potential control problems. This modification was designed to encourage patients and providers to discuss how asthma medications are being used.

This version conforms to the updated version of the ATAQ questionnaire.
