Executive Summary

Lifetime and Current Asthma Prevalence

The National Asthma Survey-New York State

(NAS-NYS) Summary Report presents information collected from July 2002 through August 2003 for New York State children and adults.

The survey provides comprehensive information

on asthma that are not available from other existing

NYS data sources.

The NAS-NYS was a random digit dialing

(RDD) telephone survey that screened for the presence of asthma in the household. A maximum of one adult and one child who ever had asthma were randomly selected for a detailed interview. Overall, 31,090 individuals from 11,713 households were screened for asthma. Of these households,

1,970 detailed asthma interviews were completed;

1,323 were adults and 647 were children.

The following are highlights from the results:

•Prevalence was generated for "lifetime" and "current" asthma based on the following questions:

Lifetime:"Have you ever been told by a doctor or

other health care professional that you have asthma?"

Current: If "yes," "Do you still have asthma?"

•Approximately 467,000 children 0-17 years (10.6% of the NYS child population) were told by a health professional that they ever had asthma and 368,000 children (8.4%) had current diagnosed asthma.Among adults 18+ years, 1,480,000 (10.6%) had lifetime asthma and 1,087,000 (7.6%) had current asthma. •Current asthma prevalence varied slightly by age for children (0-4 years,6.7%; 5-9 years,9.4%; 10-14 years,8.8%; 15-17 years,8.3%).For adults,the

18-24 year age group had the highest current asthma

prevalence (9.8%) and the 65+ year age group had the lowest (6.0%). •Current asthma prevalence was significantly higher for male children (9.8%) compared to female children (6.8%).The reverse is true for adults; the current asthma prevalence for female adults (9.0%) was

significantly higher than for male adults (6.0%).•Current asthma prevalence varied by race,with black

children having the highest prevalence at 10.0% compared to white (7.2%) and Asian (4.3%) children.Similarly,black adults had the highest current asthma prevalence (8.3%) compared to the white (6.6%) and Asian (1.8%) populations. •Hispanic New Yorkers had higher current asthma prevalence than non-Hispanics for both children (10.9% vs. 7.4%) and adults (9.0% vs. 6.3%). •Current asthma prevalence varied by region. New York City children had higher prevalence (9.7%) compared to children residing in the Rest of State (7.4%).The reverse is true for adults; the current asthma prevalence for New York City residents (7.1%) was lower than adults residing in the Rest of State (8.0%). •Both children and adults living below the federal poverty level had higher current asthma prevalence compared to those living above the federal poverty level (children, 10.1% vs. 8.7%; adults, 9.2% vs. 7.2%). •Current asthma prevalence increased as body mass index (BMI) increased; underweight children had the lowest asthma prevalence of 7.4%, while obese children had the highest prevalence of 10.1%. •Obese adults had the highest asthma prevalence of 12.3%; this was significantly higher than the other BMI groups. 8

Detailed Asthma Interview

Detailed asthma interviews included questions concerning: a history of asthma symptoms and attacks; health care utilization; knowledge of asthma; and the effect of asthma on usual activities.

The following are highlights from the results:

•For individuals with asthma, 10.9% had continual daytime symptoms while 72.5% had fewer than three daytime symptoms per week in the past month. Children were more likely to have mild daytime symptoms (< three days per week) compared to adults (86.0% vs. 67.6%); adults were more likely to have continual daytime symptoms (13.1% vs. 4.7%). •Among individuals with asthma, 14.0% experienced nighttime symptoms more than one night a week, while 81.2% had nighttime symptoms fewer than three times in the past month.Adults were more likely to have nighttime symptoms more than one night a week (14.7%) as compared to children (11.5%). •Among New Yorkers with asthma, 4.7% had seven or more asthma episodes/attacks in the last three months, while 55.1% had no asthma episodes/attacks in the past year.A lower percentage of children experienced no asthma episodes/attacks in the past year (45.8%) compared to adults (58.3%).Adults were more likely to have experienced seven or more asthma episodes/attacks in the past three months (5.3%) as compared to children (3.1%). •Almost 90% of New Yorkers with asthma were covered by health insurance.A larger proportion of children with asthma had health insurance (96.1%) compared to adults (87.1%). •For New Yorkers with asthma, 38.6% did not have a routine asthma checkup in the past year.Adults were more likely not to have a routine asthma checkup (42.0%) as compared to children (28.8%). •Among New Yorkers with asthma, 12.8% had three or more urgent outpatient visits for asthma in the past year; 68.3% did not have an urgent outpatient visit. Children were more likely to have three or more urgent outpatient visits due to asthma (17.8%) compared to adults with asthma (11.1%) and were also more likely to have at least one urgent visit due to asthma in the

past year (41.3%) as compared to adults (28.3%).•Among individuals with asthma, 16.1% utilized the

emergency room (ER) due to asthma and 8.2% visited the ER two or more times in the past year. Compared to adults, children were more likely to visit an ER at least once (23.4% vs.13.6%) as well as two or more times (14.3% vs. 6.2%). •Of New Yorkers with asthma, 4.3% had at least one hospitalization due to asthma in the past year.A higher percentage of children were hospitalized for asthma in the past year than adults (6.7% vs. 3.6%). •Almost 70% of New Yorkers with asthma were taught to recognize the early symptoms of an asthma attack and 78.6% were taught what to due during an asthma attack. Compared to adults, children were more likelyquotesdbs_dbs6.pdfusesText_11
