Out of (80) asthmatic patients 58(72.5%) had poor asthma control ( ACT< 20) compare to 22(27.5%) with well asthma control.
There were significant association between ACT score wither poor control (ACT<20) or well control (ACT=20-25) with residence , BMI and with waist/ hip ratio risk levels and no significant difference between two group regarding age groups, sex, occupation and marital state categories (p-value= 0.990, 0.539,0.181and 0.128) respectively There was significant association between asthma control with onset age of asthma(χ2=13.315, df=2.pvalue=0.001) duration of asthma (p-value=0.002), history of visit emergency room in past year due to asthma (p-value=0.02) were majority of poor asthma control (86.2%) reported such history, type of treatment (pvalue=0.000) , majority of well asthma control group (45.5%) use Ratio ICS/LABA compared with (8.5%) of poor asthma control meanwhile, (46.5%) of the last group use ICS compared to (9%) in well control group use ICS.
