Seinäjoki Adult Asthma Study

Seinäjoki Adult Asthma Study: A 12-year Real-life Follow-up Study of New-onset Asthma Diagnosed at Adult Age and Treated in Primary and Specialized Care. Finnish Title: Diagnoosista Hoitotasapainoon: Voidaanko Aikuisen Astman Hoitotasapainoa Ennustaa Diagnoosivaiheen löydösten ja Astman Ilmiasun Perusteella?
|
Seinäjoki Adult Asthma Study is a single-centre 12-year follow-up study of a total cohort of 259 patients having new-onset asthma that was diagnosed at adult age. The study was divided in two parts: the collection of the original cohort (phase I;n=259) and follow-up visit (phase II; n=203). The aim of this study is to increase the understanding on the diagnostics and diagnostic process, organisation of the long-term asthma care, therapeutic outcomes, prognosis and the factors affecting the prognosis of new-onset asthma diagnosed at adult age.
|
At baseline visit the diagnostic studies performed were: spirometry, PEF (peak expiratory flow) follow-up, other respiratory physiology measurements, laboratory, skin-prick, AQ20 (Airways questionnaire 20), 15D, background data. At follow-up visit, asthma status, co-morbidities (chronic rhinitis or obstructed nose, allergic rhinitis or conjunctivitis, diabetes, hypertension, coronary heart disease, COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease) and any other patient-reported disease), medication (including medication to other diseases and the disease treated), control, severity and lung function were evaluated. In addition to the data gathered at these visits, data on asthma follow-up visits, exacerbations, hospitalisations, possible occupationally induced asthma and prescribed asthma medication were collected from hospital clinics, primary health care, occupational health care and private practices for the whole 12-year follow-up period. In addition, the use of medication that was realised, i.e., medication bought from pharmacy, will be retrieved. In addition to asthma-specific factors, data include occupational, lifestyle and socioeconomic factors at the follow-up visit.
