  • Two or more asthma-related hospital admissions within 1 year, or
  • Steroid dependency, as defined by either 6 months of oral or 1 year of inhaled corticosteroid use
  • Age: 6-14 years old. The age group of 6 to 14 years old was chosen for two reasons:
  • Diagnostic accuracy of asthma is better in this age group as non-specific wheezers less than 6 years of age could be excluded.
  • Child should be able to use a peak flow meter and perform spirometry tests.
  • A positive specific IgE or a positive skin prick test for at least one airborne allergen.
