Official title
Randomized Controlled Trial of Spirometry Fundamentals™ in the Primary Care Setting
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Spirometry is a recommended component of asthma diagnosis and treatment in the primary care setting, yet few primary care providers report routine use of spirometry in the provision of care for their asthma patients. Misclassification of asthma severity has been reported when assessment is based on symptoms alone. This misclassification can lead to inadequate treatment that may result in increased morbidity and increased healthcare utilization/cost. However, even when spirometry is utilized to aid in asthma severity classification, primary care providers have a high rate of failing to meet the quality goals for testing established by the American Thoracic Society. The goal of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of the Spirometry Fundamentals™ tool in training primary care providers and their staff in producing high-quality flow-volume curves as compared to existing training modalities and to gather information in a 'real-world' setting that can be used to improve Spirometry Fundamentals™.
