The aim of our study was to assess asthma control among asthmatics at a tertiary care setting in Karachi using ACT questionnaire. The ACT questionnaire was filled by known asthmatics in January 2007. A total of 150 questionnaires were filled of which, 61 (40%) were males and 89 (60%) females. Mean ACT score was 17.71 +/- 4.41. Association between sex and asthma control was not statistically significant. Significant association was seen with asthma control and Ipratropium bromide inhaler. Asthma control among patients at a tertiary care centre is moderate. ACT can be used to follow patients in the hospital.
我们研究的目的是使用哮喘控制测试(ACT)问卷评估卡拉奇一家三级医疗机构中哮喘患者的哮喘控制情况。ACT问卷由确诊的哮喘患者于2007年1月填写。共填写了150份问卷,其中61份(40%)为男性,89份(60%)为女性。ACT平均得分为17.71±4.41。性别与哮喘控制之间的关联无统计学意义。哮喘控制与异丙托溴铵吸入器之间存在显著关联。三级医疗机构中患者的哮喘控制情况为中等。ACT可用于在医院对患者进行随访。
