What this research studies
This research investigates the effectiveness of CAMP Air, a personalized web-based intervention designed for urban adolescents struggling with uncontrolled asthma. The program consists of seven modules that aim to improve asthma management through education and self-care strategies. By enrolling 370 participants, the study will assess improvements in asthma control, medication use, lung function, and overall quality of life over a one-year period. Additionally, the research will evaluate the cost-effectiveness of the intervention and identify factors that contribute to its successful implementation.
Who could benefit from this research
Good fit: Ideal candidates for this research are urban adolescents aged 12 to 20 who have been diagnosed with uncontrolled asthma.
Not a fit: Patients who do not have asthma or those whose asthma is well-controlled may not benefit from this research.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this research could significantly improve asthma management and quality of life for adolescents with uncontrolled asthma.
How similar studies have performed: Previous research has shown promise in using web-based interventions for asthma management, indicating that this approach could be effective.
