Adherence to Adding Inhaled Corticosteroids to Rescue Therapy in a Pragmatic Trial with Adults with Asthma- a Pilot Study.

CONCLUSION: Recruitment was feasible within the allocated period. Adherence to PARTICS was incomplete, questionnaire completion was suboptimal, and common rescue inhaler nomenclature usage was limited. We have modified the full study protocol to attempt to improve adherence to PARTICS and minimize barriers to study procedures.
