Abstract | Background: Asthma is a complex syndrome with multiple domains including symptoms, lung function, asthma control, and airway inflammation. A study of Fenom PRO™, a novel monitor for exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO), provided an opportunity to look at concordance/discordance (C/D) for changes in multiple asthma domains over a 2-week period after corticosteroid therapy. Methods: Non-steroid-treated adults and children with uncontrolled asthma had asthma domain measures, (FeNO), forced expired volume in 1 s (FEV Results: There was a highly significant fall in mean FeNO of 51.7% over 2 weeks (p < 0.0001) accompanied by significant improvements in mean FEV Conclusion: This data demonstrates that the concordance between changes in the asthma domains is often substantially less than 100%. Reasons for this may include different time courses for change of the separate domains, the degree of abnormality for each domain at baseline, as well as intrinsic limitations of each parameter. |
