Chronic rhinosinusitis severity is associated with need for asthma-related systemic corticosteroids.

CONCLUSIONS: CRS symptom severity is associated with past asthma-related oral corticosteroid use. SNOT-22 scores may be used as a versatile tool to screen for past asthma-related oral corticosteroid use in asthmatic CRS patients - i.e. those at greatest risk from their asthma - with either high sensitivity or high specificity.
