Asthma severity
Five children had a note regarding their asthma severity in medical records and it was classified as “mild”, “not severe” or “intermittent” in three and “severe” and “significant and poorly controlled” in two. Asthma severity as defined by the amount of daily asthma medication needed to maintain asthma control could not be assessed, as based on review of dispensed medications none of the patients had picked up enough controller medication in the last year for it to be used daily.
