Study summary

This is an observational, descriptive, open-label, prospective, 6-month study including a group of patients with a first prescription of IND/GLY/MF with sensor and a group with a first prescription of IND/GLY/MF without sensor.

Read the detailed description

Patients will be invited prospectively and sequentially to participate in the study when attending a participating community pharmacy with a first prescription of IND/GLY/MF with sensor or IND/GLY/MF without sensor. Therefore, the invitation for the patient to participate in the study will occur only after the therapeutic decision has taken place

    duration of disease will be provided

    Time frame: Baseline

  9. clinical characteristics - age at asthma diagnosis

    Age when asthma was diagnosed: * Years * Unknown/cannot remember

    Time frame: Baseline

  10. clinical characteristics - asthma-related hospitalizations

    Number of hospitalizations: * n of hospitalizations * Don't know/Don't answer

    Time frame: Baseline

  12. clinical characteristics - ACT score

    The Asthma Control Test (ACT) contains 5 questions that are related to the frequency of both asthma symptoms and required rescue medication use during the previous 4 weeks. The scores in the ACT range from 5 (worse control) to 25 (total control)

    Time frame: Baseline

  13. clinical characteristics - TAI score

    The TAI questionnaire was developed to measure self-reported adherence to inhaler devices and help clinicians to evaluate non-adherence barriers related to inhaled therapy in adult patients with asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.

A total score ≤ 45 points indicates poor adherence
