NCT02517047
Background: Pediatric asthma is the most common chronic illness among children and is associated with poor quality of life, activity restriction, school absences, and thousands of physician visits annually. The purpose of this study is to measure the effectiveness of using an innovative tracking system (CareTRx) for the self-management of asthma, including daily and rescue medication use, among children and adolescents with pediatric asthma.
NCT01615367
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in bipolar disorder, yet no empirically validated psychosocial interventions to manage risk factors for CVD in BD have been developed. The purpose of this study is to develop and test the feasibility of an integrated treatment to decrease CVD risk factors, while exploring whether the intervention improves overall functioning and mood symptoms. The designed treatment integrates theories on Nutrition strategies, Exercise interventions, and Wellness Treatment (NEW Tx) to address risk factors for CVD that co-occur with bipolar disorder. NEW Tx includes novel intervention strategies in each of these three modules, as well as modified and tailored empirically-supported strategies for bipolar disorder. The primary hypotheses are that NEW Tx will be feasible to deliver, acceptable to this population, and associated with improvements in CVD risk factors (i.e., waist circumference). Exploratory analyses will examine predictors of treatment response and the effect of NEW Tx on mood symptoms and overall functioning.
