May 18, 2017 updated by: Stefania La Grutta, MD

Studio NaVA - Studio Nazionale Sulla Qualità Della Vita in Adolescenti Con Rinite Allergica Con e Senza Asma

"Studio Nava" is a National Study aiming to assess allergic rhinitis and asthma outcomes on Quality of Life and Quality of Sleep in adolescent patients by means of Web Survey. "Studio Nava" also proposes the innovative use of a web platform ("http://nava.ibim.cnr.it/") that contains all standardized tools (medical-healthcare web form, ACT, Asthma control test; PSQI, Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index; T5SS, Total Symptom Score; modified SIDRIA for adolescents; Rhinasthma; VAS scale), that will be available for the doctors after the registration to the web platform. Downloaded questionnaires will be delivered to case-patient, asking him/her to fill them during the waiting time of the visit.
