Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Observational, multicenter, study conducted in 12 hospitals in the Nord and Pas-De-Calais departments. The aim of this study is to describe the relationship between reported exposure to molds and asthma control in a pediatric population.

Each patient followed by a specialized asthma pediatrician in one of the study center will be proposed to participate in the study.

Children aged 1 to \< 18 years, with asthma diagnosis, based on the assessment of a specialized physician after a follow-up of at least 6 months Inclusion, non-inclusion and exclusion criteria will be verified by the investigators. The questionnaires will be completed during the consultation, collected by the physician in charge of the consultation and sent to the principal investigator for data entry.

Inclusion will take place over a period of 12 consecutive months from the date of obtaining regulatory approval.

Asthma patients unexposed to mold / moisture

No mold / moisture exposure is defined by a negative response to all of the 5 following questions, asked in the form of a parent-completed declarative questionnaire regarding the child's primary living home.

Questionnaire of Mold / moisture exposure

Intervention Type OTHER

Mold / moisture exposure is assessed by the 5 following questions, whose positive response has been associated with the actual presence of mold in the household (according to data from the literature data), asked in the form of a parent-completed declarative questionnaire regarding the child's primary living home:

* Presence of visible mold
* Impression of dampness
* Apparent dampness
* Existence of recent water damage in the last year
* Presence of a moldy odor
