Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The aim of this study is to assess the knowledge, the attitudes and the practices of parents of asthmatic children.

The study proposes the validation of Q- KAP by means of the recruiting of 390 parents of asthmatic children, recruited in the outpatient clinic of Pediatric Allergology \& Pulmonology (PAP) of Respiratory Disease Research Center (RDRC) within the Institute of Biomedicine and Molecular Immunology (IBIM) of the National Research Council (CNR) of Palermo (RDRC-IBIM CNR), Italy.

Q-KAP will be given to one of the parents during their children medical examination. Q-KAP is a multiple answer questionnaire investigating on knowledge, attitudes and practices for what concerns Asthma.

At the end of the recruitment time, data will be stored and analyzed in a dataset.

The expected result is the identification of a tool able to assess knowledge, attitudes and practices of asthmatic children parents, but also the identification of a tool able to identify two groups of parents (well-experienced and bad-experienced) to assess if there is a link between a low degree of knowledge and a bad control of the disease.
