Table 2.

[6] Definitions of controlled, un- and partially controlled asthma according to GINA 2014

Controlled Partially controlled Uncontrolled

Daytime asthma symptoms more than twice a week?

Any night waking due to asthma?

Reliever needed for symptoms more than twice a week?*

Any activity limitation due to asthma?

None of these 1–2 of these 3–4 of these

*The only difference compared to GINA 2021 is that the latter defines reliever need only as SABA reliever need, as-needed ICS-formoterol use is not to be considered as increased need for reliever therapy [1, 6]
