Air purifiers significantly decreased the levels of PM0.3, 2.5, and 5.0 in closed bedrooms. However, there were no significant differences in the number of cultured fungal colonies and mite antigen level. Spirometry, FOT and FeNO measurements results did not significantly too. Hence, the patients consistently had good asthma control. The intervention group experienced a significant improvement in the ACT score. The changes in treatment steps between the two groups did not significantly differ.

Fifty patients with asthma who presented with house dust-specific IgE antibodies were randomly assigned to the intervention (n = 30) and control (n = 20) groups. The intervention group used air purifiers in their bedrooms.
Fifty patients with asthma who presented with house dust-specific IgE antibodies were randomly assigned to the intervention (n = 30) and control (n = 20) groups. The intervention group used air purifiers in their bedrooms. The two groups continuously received regular asthma treatments according to their medical condition. Air purifiers were provided to the intervention group and were regularly used all day in the bedrooms. Further, the control group received air purifiers after the study. The indoor environment was examined. Next, the asthma control status of the participants was evaluated by the asthma control test (ACT) before installing the air purifier (pre-installation) in January, February, and March 2017, approximately 2-3 months after the air purifier was provided in April, May, and June 2017 (post-installation 1), after 6 months in July, August, and September 2017 (post-installation 2), and after 1 year in February, March, and April 2018 (post-installation 3). At each time point, all evaluations were performed almost simultaneously (within 1 month) to prevent seasonal effects. At all-time points, clinical data including prescribed drugs, ACT, and pulmonary function tests (PFTs) results were obtained. At pre-installation, post- installation 1, and post-installation 2, the level of house dust mite (HDM) antigens in the bedroom was measured. Next, at pre-installation and post-installation 1, the level of PM and fungi was measured by examining the indoor environment.
None
Indoor environment examination. (The levels of PM with diameters of 0.3 (PM0.3), 2.5 (PM2.5), and 5.0 (PM5.0). Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus and Dermatophagoides farina antigen levels. Cultured colony number of fungi).
Pulmonary function tests (Spirometry, exhaled nitric oxide measurement, forced oscillation technique)
Clinical information (Asthma control status assessed using ACT, Treatment steps evaluated based on the Global Initiative for Asthma, use of medications prescribed, number of common cold)
