How the Scales are Structured

Breathing SignsBS
Measures how often or strongly breathing signs suggest your child may need follow-up for possible asthma or another condition.
example score8/15
8/15Follow-up indicatedexample score
0No endorsed sign
1 – 2Limited signal
3 – 15Follow-up indicated
A score of 8 falls in the Follow-up indicated range, reflecting recurring or stronger breathing signs that may warrant pediatric assessment.
Recurring Patterns and ImpactRPaI
Measures how often breathing-related symptoms and triggers recur and how much they affect sleep and daily activity.
example score6/15
6/15Assessment warrantedexample score
0No endorsed pattern
1 – 2Emerging pattern
3 – 15Assessment warranted
A score of 6 falls in the Assessment warranted range, suggesting a recurring pattern or disruption that merits clinical review rather than serving as a diagnosis.
Urgent Breathing Warning SignsUBWS
Measures how many urgent breathing warning signs were endorsed that may indicate a need for prompt or immediate clinical attention.
example score5/15
5/15Immediate-action rangeexample score
0No warning signs endorsed
1 – 2Prompt attention
3 – 15Immediate-action range
A score of 5 falls in the Immediate-action range, meaning multiple warning signs were endorsed and any single red-flag item should be taken seriously regardless of the total score.

Parents after colds linger
34%OF USERS
Caregivers whose child’s cough keeps returning after colds or lasts for weeks, especially at night, and they want to check if symptoms fit a breathing pattern worth evaluating.
Families with allergy history
25%OF USERS
Caregivers concerned because asthma, eczema, or allergies run in the family and their child seems more sensitive to exercise, pets, pollen, smoke, or weather changes.

WHAT THE TEST MEASURES

Does My Child Have Asthma Quiz - Description and methodology of the test

Parents sorting through a child’s breathing episodes can use the Does My Child Have Asthma Quiz to organize observations before deciding what deserves medical attention. It focuses on child asthma symptoms across ordinary activity, sleep, triggers, and recent illness, while also separating potentially urgent warning signs. The result offers a structured starting point for a clearer conversation with a pediatric clinician.

What This Assessment Explores

Caregivers can use this questionnaire when a child has breathing changes that are difficult to interpret across home, sleep, play, or illness. It examines signs, recurrence, daily impact, and warning features rather than treating one cough or wheeze as decisive. The result can support a pediatric asthma screening conversation by showing which observations deserve closer attention.

Its displayed result areas are:

  • Breathing Signs (0-15) records endorsed symptoms; No endorsed sign (0), Limited signal (1-2), and Follow-up indicated (3-15) show the band.
  • Recurring Patterns and Impact (0-15) reflects repetition, triggers, sleep, and disruption; No endorsed pattern (0), Emerging pattern (1-2), and Assessment warranted (3-15) show the band.
  • Urgent Breathing Warning Signs (0-15) reflects serious changes and care needs; No warning signs endorsed (0), Prompt attention (1-2), and Immediate-action range (3-15) show the band.

These categories organize child asthma symptoms without identifying their cause.

Methodology and Scientific Basis

Each item describes a concrete situation and offers four response choices that differ by frequency, recurrence, functional effect, or severity. The topics cover quiet breathing, exercise, sleep, triggers, lingering cough, reliever response, and urgent features. This caregiver-report format supports a child breathing assessment based on observed behavior and the child’s own descriptions.

The questionnaire reports separate totals rather than one diagnostic score. Its online scoring rule does not state how each answer is weighted, so point values should not be inferred from the displayed ranges. The bands are unvalidated reflection categories, not severity cutoffs or clinical norms.

Clinically, its framing is conceptually consistent with the Easy Breathing Survey (Hall et al., 2001) and with TRACK, a caregiver measure of respiratory and asthma control in young children. The National Asthma Education and Prevention Program’s Expert Panel Report 3 adds broader context for symptom recognition and urgent deterioration. This questionnaire is not a direct adaptation or validated administration of those instruments.

Memory, current context, and interpretation can shape self-report. A single red-flag response overrides the combined score; severe breathing trouble, blue or gray coloring, confusion, or difficulty waking requires emergency help, while recurring concerns warrant pediatric review.
