NCT05603494
After outpatient clinic visit, asthmatic patients with worsening of symptoms (including dyspnea, wheezing, chest tightness, cough, activity limitation, awaken in the midnight due to discomfort) and are diagnosed of acute exacerbation by physician, will be recruited. The patients are asked to record symptoms using asthma symptom diary (ASD) with home spirometry simultaneously for 14 days. Visit 1 (day 1) All patients will be evaluated the following: 1. Record the patients' demographics (age, gender, race), baseline characteristics, comorbidities, health care resources use (visits, lab tests, hospitalization and cost), pharmacological and non-pharmacological treatments 2. Blood sampling for eosinophils, eosinophil cationic protein (ECP) and immunoglobulin E (IgE) as clinically indicated (if no data available within one year for the last two) 3. The study assistant will introduce to the patient how to manipulate the home spirometry and its app, and to record the daily asthma symptoms by using the ASD on the mobile phone. Visit 2 (day 15) All patients will be arranged outpatient clinic follow up 2 weeks later from the first visit. The outpatient clinic physician will check the home spirometry report and ASD symptom score in the past 2 weeks, and have a well explanation of these results. Statistical analysis The usage of digital function including input ASD, and the lung function from portable spirometer in study arm will be demonstrated by descriptive statistics.
NCT06026956
Asthma is a chronic inflammatory disease of the airways. Childhood asthma is quite common. The airway responds unusually to triggers. There are episodes of recurrent wheezing, shortness of breath, chest tightness, and/or coughing that may change in intensity over time. Sudden contraction of airway smooth muscle may be reversible. It is characterized by common but also variable airflow obstruction. With the development of today's technology age, tele-assessment techniques allow professionals to remotely collect real-time data about the development of patients. It has been shown that video conferencing is a feasible and reliable method for evaluating patients with neurological symptoms. In a systematic study examining 41 articles investigating telehealth services and satisfaction; The findings show that patients are generally satisfied with the use of telemedicine. He argues that telemedicine is a low-cost model, increases access to health services, saves time, eliminates the need for travel, facilitates remote patient care and follow-up, and also improves health outcomes and/or quality. Therefore, the aim of our study; To compare the findings obtained with tele-assessment and clinical face-to-face evaluations on a scientific basis, where tele-applications are developing rapidly and their effectiveness has been proven by research, and according to the data to be obtained, an idea about the compatibility between remote evaluation of some parameters of asthmatic children such as physical fitness and flexibility, balance and face-to-face evaluations. is to own. In different situations where patients cannot reach the clinic (remote distance, pandemic, etc.), the evaluations to be made using the remote tele-assessment method can reflect the objective data and the continuity of the patient-health professional relationship can be maintained.
