Key Points

  • To explore the role of non-traditional spirometric indices in assessing airway dysfunction and asthma control in children.
  • Evaluated non-traditional spirometric indices such as FEV0.5/FVC
  • Analyzed their correlation with asthma control
  • Compared findings to traditional spirometric measures
  • Non-traditional indices provided enhanced insights into airway dysfunction
  • Improved asthma control was linked to these indices
  • Identified distinct asthma phenotypes using the new measures

Abstract

Non-traditional spirometric indices, particularly FEV0.5/FVC, enhance the evaluation of airway dysfunction and asthma control in pediatric populations. Incorporating these indices into routine assessments offers a broader understanding of asthma phenotypes, supporting personalized management strategies.
