结局指标
主要结局
Forced expiratory volume in 1 second
时间窗: 6 week
Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 second (FEV1) is a measurement of how much air a person can forcefully exhale from their lungs in one second
Forced Vital Capicity
时间窗: 6 week
Forced vital capacity (FVC) is a measurement of lung function that quantifies the maximum amount of air a person can forcefully exhale after taking the deepest breath possible
Peak Expiratory Flow Rate
时间窗: 6 week
Peak expiratory flow rate (PEFR) measures the maximum speed of air that a person can forcefully exhale in one breath
Forced expiratory volume in 1 second
时间窗: 6 week
Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 second (FEV1) is a measurement of how much air a person can forcefully exhale from their lungs in one second
Peak Expiratory Flow Rate
时间窗: 6 week
Peak expiratory flow rate (PEFR) measures the maximum speed of air that a person can forcefully exhale in one breath
Forced Vital Capicity
时间窗: 6 week
Forced vital capacity (FVC) is a measurement of lung function that quantifies the maximum amount of air a person can forcefully exhale after taking the deepest breath possible
Asthama Control Test
时间窗: 6 week
The Asthma Control Test (ACT) is scored by assigning a value from 1 to 5 to each response in the 5-question survey, then summing these values for a total score ranging from 5 to 25. A higher score indicates better asthma control. A score of 20 or higher generally suggests well-controlled asthma.
Asthama Quality of Life Questionaire with standardized Activities
时间窗: 6 week
The Standardized Asthma Quality of Life Questionnaire (AQLQ(S)) is a 32-item questionnaire used to assess the impact of asthma on an individual's quality of life, specifically focusing on the physical, emotional, and social aspects. 7-point Likert scale (7 = not impaired at all - 1 = severely impaired). Scores range 1-7, with higher scores indicating better quality of life.
