Study summary

A Non-Interventional Retrospective Study To Assess The Level Of Asthma Control Among Adults at 2 Tertiary Care Centres In Malaysia; Institute Of Respiratory Medicine (IPR) And Hospital Serdang. The specific objective of the study is to assess, in real-life clinical practice in Malaysia, the level of GINA-defined asthma control and the potential risk factors for uncontrolled disease in asthma patients

Read the detailed description

Despite the availability of GINA global guideline on asthma management which is widely referred by health care providers in Malaysia, the control of asthma is still a critical challenge. According to National Health and Morbidity Survey 2011, the prevalence of asthma in Malaysia is at 6.3%. Based on self-rated health status, 5.5% of patients were reported to be in good health whereas 9.9% reported poor health status although medications such as inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) and long-acting beta agonists (LABA) are widely available for effective asthma management. There is limited data to assess the level of asthma control in Malaysia which includes current clinical manifestation and future risk of exacerbation. Given the lack of data on Asthma control level, the awareness on the current disease control level will assist to properly characterise the patients based on GINA control level thus leading to appropriate diagnosis and treatment. The specific objective of the study is to assess, in real-life clinical practice in Malaysia, the level of GINA-defined asthma control and the potential risk factors for uncontrolled disease in asthma patients

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on May 11, 2018, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
