The score is calculated from the total number of YES responses from the questions above
What does my AIRQ® score mean?
The AIRQ@ is meant to help your health care providers talk with you about your asthma control. The AIRQ@ does not diagnose asthma. Whatever your AIRQ@ score (total YES answers), it is important for your health care team to discuss the number and answers to each of the questions with you. All patients with asthma, even those who may be well-controlled, can have an asthma attack. As asthma control worsens, the chance of an asthma attack increases.1 Only your medical provider can decide how best to assess and treat your asthma.
