What this Trial Is About
A randomized controlled trial with parent-child pairs of children with persistent or uncontrolled asthma. An intervention group (n=40 parent-child pairs) will receive the mobile health (mHealth) app and digital sensors with enhanced support from a population health manager role, hereinafter referred to as an asthma coordinator, to provide remote patient monitoring (RPM). A comparison group (n=40 parent-child pairs) will receive the mHealth app and sensors without RPM support to silently collect inhaler use information without mHealth app features. The focus of this project is to evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of delivering a digital intervention for pediatric asthma with RPM in the outpatient setting.
