Nowadays, Health Related Quality of Life (HRQoL) evaluation represents a crucial aspect for both clinics and research. More and more attention is being focused on evaluating this parameter appropriately, following the recommendations provided by the international guidelines. Meanwhile, research into the impact of allergic rhinitis and asthma on HRQoL often does not take into account the fact that subjects suffering from allergy are often characterized by the presence of both pathologies. This criticality has been faced, since more than 10 years ago, through the validation of the RHINASTHMA, a specific tool for adult patients suffering from rhinitis and/or asthma, nowadays available in different languages. Due to the content of the questionnaire, it is not intended for use in younger patients. Originating from the RHINASTHMA, and with direct involvement in each validation step for patients in the age range 12–18, a new Italian questionnaire has been validated addressed specifically for adolescence (1). The RHINASTHMA-Adolescents is a tool simple and easy to complete, and it meets the psychometric standards for validity, internal consistency and reliability. It is made of 20 items, grouped into five factors which assess the central aspects of HRQoL in adolescents with respiratory allergy: the impact of the disease on upper airways, lower airways, emotions, social relationship and daily life management. In the questionnaire, asthma and rhinitis are considered as different aspects of the same disease, so that patients are not asked to attribute specific symptoms or problems to asthma or rhinitis separately, and therefore it may replace two other questionnaires, thereby meeting the need for simple and effective tools.
