Objectives: We examined correlations between the two asthma assessment tools, pulmonary
function tests, and Childhood Asthma Control Test (C-ACT) scores, in 5e11-year-old children
with asthma to determine if the C-ACT scores could predict pulmonary function test results.
Materials and methods: A total of 172 children with asthma aged 5e11 years completed C-ACT
questionnaires and underwent pulmonary function testing. Correlations between these test results
were examined. Patients were also placed into two groups, C-ACT scores 19 and >19, to
determine if patients with scores >19 had better pulmonary function test results.
