Differential change was calculated as the difference from baseline in the CART condition (eg, 1MFU − baseline) minus the difference from baseline for the SLOW condition; higher numbers indicate greater increases in CART vs SLOW. ASC = Asthma Symptom Checklist; ASQ = Asthma Symptom Questionnaire; KASE-AQ = Knowledge, Attitude, and Self-efficacy Asthma Questionnaire; SF-12 = Survey Form-12.
