  • 2. Requirement for treatment with high-dose inhaled corticosteroids
  • Minor Criteria:
  • 1. Requirement for daily treatment with a controller medication in addition to inhaled corticosteroids, e.g., long-acting β-agonist, theophylline, or leukotriene antagonist
  • 2. Asthma symptoms requiring short-acting β-agonist use on a daily or near daily basis
  • 3. Persistent airway obstruction (FEV1, 80% predicted; diurnal PEF variability >20%)
  • 4. One or more urgent care visits for asthma per year
  • 5. Three or more oral steroid bursts per year
