Official title
mHealth Approach to Collaborative Asthma Management for Teens & Parents
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The aims of this application are to develop and test AIM2ACT, a mobile health (mHealth) tool, delivered via smartphones, that fosters helpful caregiver support as early adolescents (ages 12-15) with persistent asthma develop and master asthma self-management behaviors. To facilitate helpful caregiver support, AIM2ACT uses mHealth technology to determine tailored intervention targets for each family. AIM2ACT then helps caregiver/adolescent dyads set asthma management goals by automatically guiding families through a structured process that includes the supportive behavioral management strategies of goal setting, contingency management, and problem solving communication. Skills-training videos for adolescents and caregivers provide guidance on how to complete each collaborative asthma management component. AIM2ACT will be developed through feedback from an advisory board of adolescent-caregiver dyads from the target user population and a pediatric pulmonologist. Following advisory board feedback, the investigators will conduct a pilot randomized controlled trial of AIM2ACT with 50 early adolescents with poorly controlled asthma, ages 12-15 years, and a caregiver. Families will be randomly assigned to receive AIM2ACT or a self-guided condition for a 4 month intervention period. Participants in the self-guided condition will be given general information on supportive behavioral management techniques they can use to target improvement in asthma self-management behaviors. Outcomes include whether participants prefer AIM2ACT or the self-guided condition. Additionally, AIM2ACT and the self-guided condition will be compared to see if there are differences in changes in family asthma management (primary outcome), lung function, asthma control, asthma-related quality of life, and self-efficacy for asthma management. Data will be collected before participants are assigned to AIM2ACT or the self-guided control, post-treatment, and 4 month follow-up time points.
