Subjects were asked to complete an asthma task assessment tool, composed of a 31-item Likert scale survey based on the AE-C certification exam content and the National Asthma Education Prevention Program\u2019s Expert Panel Report 3 guidelines, which include 6 domains of asthma education (ie, the asthma condition, assessing the patient and family, behavioral and environmental factors, asthma management education, asthma medications, and organizational issues).
