- W753562018 abstract "This study aims at describing the epidemiological and clinical characteristics, severity, reversibility testing and response to treatment using simple spirometry in asthmatic patients attending a model specialized Asthma Care Center.Eligible subjects must have a suggestive clinical picture and confirmed by spirometry to have a 12% plus 200ml absolute increase in FEV1 either by reversibility testing or after a therapeutic trial with inhaled and/or oral steroid therapy. Budesonide-Formoterol Turbohaler was used for reversibility testing and for maintenance therapy with or without the addition of oral prednisolone.One hundred and nineteen patients were eligible for the study. Age ranged between 10 -70 years. One hundred and thirteen patients (95.0%) had an FEV1 less than 80% of predicted. One hundred and five patients (88.2%) had reversibility testing of whom 72 (68.6%) had a significant reversibility. Sixty two patients (52.1%) were prescribed Budesonide-Formoterol Turbohaler only whilst 57 were prescribed both Budesonide-Formoterol Turbohaler and oral prednisolone. Patients were reviewed after a mean of 14.9 days (range 6.0-28.0). Seventy two patients (60.5%) had increased their FEV1 to more than 80% of their predicted value. By logistic regression analysis, predicted FEV1 at baseline was a significant negative predictor of a complete response.Most patients had abnormal spirometry with more than half having an FEV1 that is 60% or less of their predicted normal reading. Reversibility testing using Budesonide-Formoterol Turbohaler confirmed the fast onset of action of its Formoterol component and helped in cutting the cost of this test. The majority improved with treatment with 60% normalizing their spirometry highlighting the feasibility and applicability of specialized asthma care centers in resource-poor countries." @default.
