Abstract

The ability to perceive the onset and severity of symptoms of worsening asthma is important, not only for initial diagnosis but also for early identification of an asthma exacerbation and prompt management. There are subjective and objective methods for identifying symptoms. Symptom perception is affected by multiple mechanisms, and not all patients can accurately perceive symptoms of airflow limitation. Hyperperceivers will report substantial discomfort in the face of minimal bronchoconstriction, and poor perceivers will report no symptoms even in the presence of severe obstruction. The use of objective measures of airflow limitation is essential for such patients. Regimens for training perception in children and adults have been studied and are available.

Perception of pulmonary function and asthma control: the differential role of child versus caregiver anxiety and depression. J Pediatr Psychol. 2013;38(10):1091–100. doi:10.1093/jpepsy/jst052. In children age 7-11, anxiety is associated with hyper-perception of asthma symptoms and increased rescue medication use. Depressive symptoms were associated with increased rescue medication use, but not perception of lung function. Children whose caregivers had anxiety or depression were more likely to have low pulmonary function that those whose caregivers did not have anxiety or depression.CrossRefPubMedPubMedCentral

Of these, 31 performed reliably in 4 sessions. Factors affecting reliability were development (cognitive and physical), experience with asthma symptoms, and medication adherence.CrossRefPubMed
