Evaluation and Application of the Work-Related Asthma Screening Questionnaire—Long Version (WRASQ[L])
The WRASQ(L) has high SN and NPV. High SN is of primary interest to ensure that few false-negative screens are missed and those with potential WRA are identified and continue to specialist care. The SN indicates utility of the questionnaire in clinical settings. Further benefits of the tool include its potential to prompt education on the symptom-workplace relationship, workplace exposures, personal protective equipment use, and collect exposure and occupational history.
