Description
For all persons who were in scope in round 3 of panel in relative year 2 or round 1 of panel in relative year 1 and were ever diagnosed with asthma (ASTHMAEV), ASTHPINQUICKRD reports if the person used a quick relief prescription inhaler for their asthma in the past 3 months. Respondents were asked whether they had used the kind of prescription inhaler "that you breathe in through your mouth" that gives quick relief from asthma symptoms. Persons who answered "Yes" were asked additional questions about asthma medication and peak flow meters.
Collection frequency and timing for ASTHPINQUICKRD change over time. From 2007-2016 this question was asked in round 5 of panel in relative year 2 and round 3 of panel in relative year 1. In 2003-2006, 2018, 2019, and 2022 forward, this question is only asked once per year and those responses are recorded in the annual-level variable ASTHPINQUICK.
ASTHPINQUICKRD is one of several asthma-related questions included in the Priority Conditions Enumeration (PE) section. For a complete list of these variables, please see the variable description for ASTHMAEV.
