Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BFSS) -- Childhood Asthma Questions
In the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS), optional survey questions regarding asthma can be used by states to determine state-level child lifetime and current asthma prevalence by certain demographic characteristics to inform public health professionals, the public, and national, state, and local decisionmakers on the state of asthma.
(CDC/NCEH/DEHSP/AAQB provided funding for these additional, optional survey questions about childhood asthma; the "parent" survey, BRFSS, is administered by another center in CDC)
