Comparing the Asthma APGAR System and the Asthma Control Test™ in a Multicenter Primary Care Sample

The Asthma APGAR system and the ACT™/CACT™ similarly assess asthma control in a multicenter primary care-based sample. The Asthma APGAR system identified an “actionable item” in more than 75% (234) of the individuals with poor asthma control, thus linking an assessment of poor asthma control with a management strategy.
