Please answer the following questions:

1. Step 1: Let your child respond to the first four questions (1 to 4). If your child needs help in reading or understanding the question, you may help, but let your child select the response. Question 1: How is your Asthma today?
2. Question 2: How much of a problem is your asthma when you run, exercise or play sports?
3. Question 3: Does your Asthma make you cough?
4. Question 4: Does your asthma make you wake up during the night?
5. Step 2: Complete the remaining questions on your own and without letting your child's responses influence your answers. Question 5: During the last 4 weeks, how many days did your child have any daytime asthma symptoms?
6. Question 6: During the last 4 weeks, how many days did your child wheeze during the day because of asthma?
7. Question 7: During the last 4 weeks, how may days did your child wake up during the night because of asthma?
9. Does your child have an Asthma Management Plan?
9. Does your child have a preventer inhaler?
10. How many puffs does your child take of their preventer inhaler in the MORNING?
If your child’s inhaler contains a steroid, they should brush their teeth or rinse their mouth with water and spit it out after every use to prevent mouth infections.
11. How may puffs does your child take of their preventer inhaler at NIGHT?
12. Has your child had an exacerbation of their Asthma in the last year?
An asthma exacerbation is a sudden progressive worsening of your symptoms such as shortness of breath, wheezing, cough and chest tightness. Exacerbations often require additional treatment, such as steroid tablets or hospital treatment.
13. In the last year, has your child been prescribed any oral steroids such as prednisolone tablets as a result of an exacerbation of their asthma?
14. Does your child smoke or are they exposed to second-hand smoke?
Taking your asthma medicine each day will help reduce your reaction to these triggers. Avoiding them where possible will also help. People with allergies need to be extra careful as attacks can be more severe.
