Asthma control questionnaire
A simple questionnaire to measure the adequacy of asthma control and change in asthma control which occurs either spontaneously or as a result of treatment. 7 items; 1 week recall (for items on symptoms and rescue inhaler use). 7-point scale (0=no impairment, 6= maximum impairment for symptoms and rescue use; and 7 categories for FEV1%). Minimally important difference: Change in score of 0.5

COVID Stress Scales
COVID stress scale (CSS): is a 36-item COVID Stress Scale (CSS) to measure these features, as they pertain to COVID-19. The CSS were developed to better understand and assess COVID-19-related distress. The scales were intentionally designed so they could be readily adapted for future pandemics.

Test of Adherence to Inhalers
12-item questionnaire designed to assess the adherence to inhalers. The final version of the questionnaire included 12 items with two main domains, the patient (items #1 to #10) and the health professional (items #11 and #12) domain. In fact, the TAI consists of two complementary questionnaires: the 10-items TAI was designed to identify non-adherent patients and to establish the non-adherence level, whereas the 12-items TAI was designed to guide clinically the non-adherence patterns.An erratic and deliberate non-adherent behavioral pattern was defined in the presence of scores ≤24 for items #1 to #5 and items #6 to #10, respectively. The unwitting pattern was defined in the presence of a score 1 in at least one of the #11 or #12 items of the questionnaire.
