Summary

The goal of this pilot interventional study is to learn about the implementation of a home monitoring program (using remote study visits and lung function testing) in children with asthma. The main questions to answer are: 1. Do participants find the program to be feasible, acceptable and accessible? 2. What factors are associated with completion of the program? 3. Does the program have an effect on asthma control and daytime sleepiness?

Detailed description

The primary objective of the proposed study is to pilot test implementation of a protocol for enhanced asthma monitoring using novel technology, including mobile spirometry and remote study visits, for rural and medically underserved children with persistent asthma in Delaware and to determine its feasibility, acceptability, and accessibility. Additionally, the proposed study aims to explore patient and family demographic characteristics and social factors associated with successful completion of the program and to explore the preliminary effect of the enhanced asthma monitoring program on asthma control and sleepiness as a measure of daytime functioning.

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
BEHAVIORAL	Pilot study arm for technology-enhanced asthma intervention	Participants will be enrolled in a remote monitoring program using monthly remote study visits which will include the use of a mobile spirometer (device for testing lung function). Participants will complete monthly remote study visits visits using telehealth platform and will complete lung function testing during the visit using a mobile spirometer as well as remote study measures.
