Few studies have quantitatively addressed the relationship between asthma-specific quality of life and asthma control as assessed by validated tools. Questionnaires were completed at home by a random sample of 542 adult asthmatic patients. The correlations of the two asthma control tools (Asthma Control Test and Asthma Therapy Assessment Questionnaire) with the quality of life tool (mini-Asthma Quality of Life Questionnaire) were strongest with the symptoms and activity domains (r = 0.63-0.77); lower with the emotions domain (r = 0.57-0.64); and lowest with the environment domain (r = 0.38-0.43). Asthma control tools reflect the symptoms and activity themes of asthma quality of life well, but reflect the environmental domain less well.
很少有研究通过经过验证的工具定量分析哮喘特异性生活质量与哮喘控制之间的关系。542名成年哮喘患者的随机样本在家中完成了问卷调查。两种哮喘控制工具(哮喘控制测试和哮喘治疗评估问卷)与生活质量工具(小型哮喘生活质量问卷)的相关性在症状和活动领域最强(r = 0.63 - 0.77);在情绪领域较低(r = 0.57 - 0.64);在环境领域最低(r = 0.38 - 0.43)。哮喘控制工具能很好地反映哮喘生活质量的症状和活动主题,但对环境领域的反映较差。
