    Techniques to be considered for investigation of asthma-related comorbidities

    Allergy skin testing
    Rhinoscopy
    Sinus radiography/computed tomography
    Sputum bacteriological testing
    Therapeutic trial of GERD with proton pump inhibitor or pH probe
    Sleep studies
    Precipitins for Aspergillus
    Pulmonary function tests (including lung volume and DL,CO)
    Chest radiography/computed tomography
    Bronchoscopy with or without bronchoalveolar lavage
    Laryngoscopy
    Psychological evaluation
    Induced sputum cell counts
    • Additional tests may be required. GERD: gastro-oesophageal reflux disease; DL,CO: diffusion capacity of the lung for carbon monoxide.
