====== Respiratory problems (ELON) ====== The "Europees Luchtwegonderzoek Nederland III short questionnaire" (ELON III) is the Dutch version of the [[https://www.ecrhs.org/|European Community Respiratory Health Survey (ECRHS)]].\\ The short survey, together with the long version, has been used since 1991 as the standard questionnaire for epidemiological studies on respiratory health.\\ In [[start|Lifelines]], the ELON is part of the [[diseases & symptoms]] [[sections|section]].\\ Note that Lifelines also assessed [[respiratory diseases]] and [[respiratory problems (general)]]. The original ELON is a 16-item questionnaire with 4 aims.\\ Two of these original aims were covered independently from the ELON in Lifelines: * collect basic information regarding [[smoking & tobacco use|smoking status]]; * confirm length of time each person has lived at their current [[home environment (general)|address]]. The two other aims were reached using the ELON: * basic health information regarding respiratory status; * assessment of who is taking inhaled steroids or other medication related to respiratory diseases. ===== Variables ===== | **Questions English** | **Questions Dutch** | **Code** | **Variable** | **Assessment** | **Age** | | Did you suffer from chest wheezing in the past twelve months? | Hebt u in de afgelopen 12 maanden wel eens last gehad van piepen op de borst? | elon_wheeze_adu_q_01 | ELON1A | [[2A questionnaire 2|2A]] [[NEXT]] | 18+ | | Were you short of breath during this wheezing? | Was u kortademig tijdens dit piepen op de borst? | elon_wheeze_adu_q_01_a | ELON1B | [[2A questionnaire 2|2A]] [[NEXT]] | 18+ | | Did you have this wheezing when you did not have a cold? | Hebt u dit piepen op de borst gehad wanneer u niet verkouden was? | elon_wheeze_adu_q_01_b | ELON1C | [[2A questionnaire 2|2A]] [[NEXT]] | 18+ | | Did you ever wake up with a tight feeling in your chest in the past twelve months? | Bent u in de afgelopen 12 maanden wel eens wakker geworden met een gevoel van beklemming op de borst? | elon_wakingup_adu_q_02 | ELON2 | [[2A questionnaire 2|2A]] [[NEXT]] | 18+ | | Did you ever wake up feeling short of breath in the past twelve months? | Bent u in de afgelopen 12 maanden wel eens wakker geworden door een aanval van kortademigheid? | elon_wakingup_adu_q_03 | ELON3 | [[2A questionnaire 2|2A]] [[NEXT]] | 18+ | | Did you ever wake up with a coughing attack in the past twelve months? | Bent u in de afgelopen 12 maanden wel eens wakker geworden door een hoestbui? | elon_wakingup_adu_q_04 | ELON4 | [[2A questionnaire 2|2A]] [[NEXT]] | 18+ | | Did you ever have an asthma attack in the past twelve months? | Hebt u in de afgelopen 12 maanden een astma-aanval gehad? | elon_asthma_adu_q_05 | ELON5 | [[2A questionnaire 2|2A]] [[NEXT]] | 18+ | | Are you using any medication for your asthma now (e.g. inhalers, aerosols, tablets)? | Gebruikt u momenteel geneesmiddelen (bv. inhalatoren, aerosols, tabletten) tegen astma? | elon_asthma_adu_q_06 | ELON6 | [[2A questionnaire 2|2A]] [[NEXT]] | 18+ | | Do you have any form of nasal allergy, including hay fever? | Hebt u enige vorm van neusallergie, inclusief ‘hooikoorts’? | elon_nasalallergies_adu_q_07 | ELON7A | [[2A questionnaire 2|2A]] [[NEXT]] | 18+ | | How old were you when you had a nasal allergy or hay fever for the first time? | Hoe oud was u toen u voor het eerst een neusallergie of ‘hooikoorts’ had? | elon_nasalallergies_adu_q_07_a | ELON7B | [[2A questionnaire 2|2A]] [[NEXT]] | 18+ | | Have you ever been short of breath during the day in the past twelve months? | Hebt u in de afgelopen 12 maanden wel eens overdag in rust een aanval van kortademigheid gehad? | elon_dyspnea_adu_q_08 | ELON8 | [[2A questionnaire 2|2A]] [[NEXT]] | 18+ | | Did you ever feel short of breath during the day in the past twelve months? | Hebt u in de afgelopen 12 maanden wel eens overdag na inspanning een aanval van kortademigheid gehad? | elon_dyspnea_adu_q_09 | ELON9 | [[2A questionnaire 2|2A]] [[NEXT]] | 18+ | | Have you ever suffered from asthma? | Hebt u ooit astma gehad? | elon_asthma_adu_q_10 | ELON10A | [[2A questionnaire 2|2A]] [[NEXT]] | 18+ | | How old were you when you had your first asthma attack? | Hoe oud was u toen u uw eerste astma-aanval had? | elon_asthma_adu_q_10_a | ELON10B | [[2A questionnaire 2|2A]] [[NEXT]] | 18+ | | Do you cough almost every day for a period of three months a year? | Hoest u vrijwel dagelijks, wel drie maanden per jaar? | elon_cough_adu_q_11 | ELON11 | [[2A questionnaire 2|2A]] [[NEXT]] | 18+ | | Do you cough up mucus every day for a period of three months a year? | Geeft u vrijwel dagelijks slijm op, wel drie maanden per jaar? | elon_phlegm_adu_q_12 | ELON12 | [[2A questionnaire 2|2A]] [[NEXT]] | 18+ | | Has a doctor ever told you that you have a chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) or emphysema? | Heeft een arts u ooit verteld dat u een chronische obstructieve longaandoening (COPD) of emfyseem hebt? | elon_copd_adu_q_13 | ELON13A | [[2A questionnaire 2|2A]] [[NEXT]] | 18+ | | How old were you when a doctor told you that you have a chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) or emphysema? | Hoe oud was u toen een arts u vertelde dat u een chronische obstructieve longaandoening (COPD) of emfyseem hebt? | elon_copd_adu_q_13_a | ELON13B | [[2A questionnaire 2|2A]] [[NEXT]] | 18+ | | Did you regularly (almost daily) use budesonide, fluticasone, beclomethasone, ciclesonide or another corticosteroid inhaler in the past twelve months? | Hebt u in de afgelopen 12 maanden regelmatig (vrijwel dagelijks) budesonide, fluticason, beclomethason, ciclesonide of een andere corticosteroïd inhaler gebruikt? | elon_steroids_adu_q_14 | ELON14 | [[2A questionnaire 2|2A]] [[NEXT]] | 18+ |
