In Brief
An observational study evaluating Asthma treatment with an asthma-related medication and at least one asthma controller medication for Asthma. Completed, enrolled 101,437 participants.
Detailed Summary
The purpose of this study is to assess the predictive ability of three asthma risk markers: the ratio of controller medication to total asthma medication, an albuterol only marker, and an oral corticosteroid use marker, as well as to compare the precision of these tools between adult and pediatric patient populations. This retrospective longitudinal analysis will use 2 different databases: a large managed care database and a large fee for service Medicaid database.
