Brief Summary:
The purpose of this project is to refine and further evaluate an online asthma management and education program for urban teenagers This project is a continuation of Puff City I a project piloting and evaluating a tailored school-based computerized asthma education program for urban teenagers In this second phase of research a new version of software Puff City II will be created that will target resistance to change and relapse and using a tested theory-based approach to student recruitment conduct a randomized trial to test the efficacy of this new software
Detailed Description:
BACKGROUND
Teenagers are among an age group that has seen dramatic increases in deaths from asthma In Detroit asthma death rates for teenagers are high relative to younger ages despite a higher prevalence in the latter age group Early studies suggest that inadequate asthma management plays a significant role in these grim statistics
DESIGN NARRATIVE
The study hypothesis is that students randomized to the intervention group will have lower asthma-related morbidity as determined by fewer emergency department visits and hospitalizations at the time of the 12-month follow-up Based on a second hypothesis of better functional status among students randomized to the intervention group secondary outcomes include fewer symptom-days symptom-nights school days missed and days of restricted activity at the time of the 12-month follow-up In addition it is hypothesized that students in the intervention group will have higher scores on the Juniper Pediatric Quality of Life scale at 12 months Finally it is hypothesized that intervention students would exhibit positive changes in adherence behavior having a rescue inhaler nearby and smoking at the 12-month follow-up
