AMP-BPT and His-BPT for Assessment of Asthma

Patients with uncontrolled and partly controlled asthma, following accomplishment of study 1, were invited to participate in observational study (study 2), which sought to determine usefulness of both BPTs in reflecting improvement of asthmatic symptoms following 3 and 6 months of moderate-dose ICSs treatment (400\~800μg budesonide or equivalent). Patient continued to administer their original ICS during follow-up. During two follow-up visits (3 months apart), AMP-BPT, His-BPT and Hogg's symptom scores were reassessed.
