What this Trial Is About
Asthma control in children remains a significant challenge, especially for those with uncontrolled asthma. This research aims to study telemedicine-based education for caregivers to improve asthma management in pediatric patients. The goal is to help caregivers gain better knowledge and skills through remote support, which may lead to improved asthma outcomes for their children. Participants will be randomly assigned to either standard care or a telemedicine education group. Caregivers in the telemedicine group will receive video calls that include education on avoiding asthma triggers, reminders about treatment adherence, and guidance on using inhalers properly. These calls also allow caregivers to ask questions and receive personalized advice tailored to their child's asthma condition. During the study, caregivers will be supported with scheduled video calls to reinforce asthma management practices. Researchers will evaluate improvements in asthma control, caregiver knowledge, attitudes toward asthma care, and inhaler technique at follow-up visits ranging from 4 to 24 weeks after enrollment. The study involves children aged 4 to 16 years with uncontrolled asthma, with ongoing monitoring through questionnaires and follow-up visits to assess outcomes and adherence.
