The current national guidelines for assessing asthma severity have several limitations for use in asthmatic children. One major limitation is that spirometric measures of airflow limitation, including forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1), generally cannot be reliably obtained in children less than 7 years of age. Furthermore, most children with asthma have essentially normal measures of airflow by spirometry or peak flow, so such measurements are generally not useful in diagnosis and treatment. Previous studies indicate that lung-specific biomarkers of inflammation, such as bronchial hyperresponsiveness measures, might simplify, improve, and optimize the guidelines. Collection of EBC samples may also be useful; EBC samples can be obtained by noninvasive means and are easier to obtain than conventional samples. However, contamination by saliva is an issue in collecting EBC samples, and standardization of sample collection is needed. This study will compare the utility of two different sample collecting equipment, the EcoScreen and the R-Tube. This study will also evaluate the usefulness of EBC samples in distinguishing between asthmatic children taking ICS, asthmatic children not taking ICS, and nonasthmatic children.
