Usage, Usability & Effect on Adherence and Clinical Outcomes of Text Message Reminders for Adolescents With Asthma
Completed · Not applicable
Conditions studied: Asthma
In brief
The purpose of this randomized crossover study is to determine the efficacy of participant designed medication reminders on asthma control, asthma related quality of life,and medication adherence. In addition, this study will provide data regarding the usage, usability, acceptability of an online system designed for creating text message reminders. It is hypothesized that the teens receiving text message reminders will report having greater quality of life related to their asthma, a reported increase in the control of their asthma, and increased adherence to their medication regimen compared to those teens that are not receiving the text message reminders.
