Popis: To inform better asthma management in China, this study aimed to comprehensively investigate clinical characteristics, treatment patterns, asthma control status, exacerbations, and humanistic burden among adult patients seeking hospital-based asthma care by analyzing data from Adelphi Asthma Disease Specific Program conducted in China.All information was collected on survey date (August-December 2018) from medical records, physicians, or patients, without follow-up being conducted. Results are summarized descriptively for the overall population as well as subgroups defined by GINA 2018 treatment step.Of the included 765 patients, 46.0%, 40.4%, and 29.2% had undergone lung function, blood eosinophil count, and specific immunoglobulin E/radioallergosorbent testing, and 17.2%, 24.1%, and 58.7% were managed at GINA Steps 1-2, 3, and 4-5, respectively. Asthma was not well controlled in 57.3% of patients based on definitions adapted from the ERS/ATS and 10.7% of patients had experienced ≥1 severe exacerbation in the preceding year. According to patient self-reporting (n=603), the mean (SD) was 0.9 (0.1) for utility on EQ-5D-3L and was 7.8% (10.4%), 36.9% (20.0%), 40.8% (22.2%), and 37.9% (22.3%) for absenteeism, presenteeism, work productivity loss, and activity impairment, respectively, on WPAI. Both asthma control and humanistic burden worsened with progressive GINA treatment steps.In patients seeking hospital-based asthma care in China, lung function and biomarker tests were underutilized, impairment in productivity and quality of life was observed, and more than half did not achieve well-controlled asthma despite approximately 60% being managed at GINA treatment Steps 4-5. These findings highlight the urgent need for optimizing asthma management in China.
