These instruments were developed and validated for clinical use to:
- standardise the assessment of asthma control in clinical settings;
- standardise the evaluation of the severity of an asthma exacerbation in acute care settings;
- assist in the monitoring, management, and education of children and adolescents with asthma and their family.
We also offer health care professionals the opportunity to complete an online teaching module pertaining to the assessment of acute childhood asthma using the Paediatric Respiratory Assessment Measure (PRAM).
Some of the asthma-specific tools are designed for use in acute care settings and clinic (non-acute care) settings.
