Summary

Asthma is mainly managed in primary care, yet disease control remains suboptimal. Many patients experience ongoing symptoms, exacerbations, and frequent short-acting β₂-agonist use, while underestimating the severity of their condition. Approximately 40% of patients have uncontrolled asthma based on Asthma Control Questionnaire scores. This highlights the need for structured assessment of asthma control, risk factors, inhaler technique, and alignment of treatment with international guidelines.

Structured asthma reviews and digital support tools may help optimize and personalize asthma management, particularly for patients at increased risk of exacerbations. Novel risk prediction tools using biomarkers such as FeNO and blood eosinophils show promise but are not yet routinely used in primary care.

This study aims to assess asthma control, identify patients at higher risk of exacerbations, and explore opportunities for management optimization in primary care. In addition, it supports the development of a longitudinal respiratory registry to facilitate clinical research and participation in future clinical trials.

BEHAVIORAL

AsthmaOptimiser-supported structured asthma review

Participants receive a structured, guideline-based asthma assessment during a single study visit in primary care using the AsthmaOptimiser decision-support tool. The assessment includes patient-reported outcomes (ACQ-6, CAAT), lung function testing (oscillometry and/or spirometry), and point-of-care phenotyping (e.g., FeNO and blood eosinophils, where applicable). Based on these assessments, a report is generated summarizing asthma control, exacerbation risk, and guideline-based opportunities for treatment and management optimization. Treatment decisions remain at the discretion of the treating healthcare professional. Participants complete follow-up questionnaires via a respiratory registry at approximately 3 and 6 months after the visit.
