Mobile Technology and Online Tools to Improve Asthma Control in Adolescents - Usability (CampAir FEA)

January 27, 2017 updated by: 3-C Institute for Social Development

Mobile Technology and Online Tools to Improve Asthma Control in Adolescents

This project will fully develop and preliminarily validate CampAir, an empirically-based dynamic e-health intervention (based on the evidence-based ASMA) to assist adolescents with uncontrolled asthma to learn how to manage their illness and improve their asthma control. In addition to developing a highly novel product for adolescents with asthma, the research proposed for this project will address unique scientific questions. Despite the high asthma prevalence among adolescents, few interventions have specifically targeted adolescents. This study is innovative in that it is among the few to focus on adolescents, who are often overlooked by the healthcare system. This research will assess factors associated with successful implementation of CampAir, thereby providing new information regarding how e-health interventions can be effectively developed and implemented for use with adolescents with asthma.

Detailed Description

This project will fully develop and preliminarily validate CampAir, an empirically-based dynamic e-health intervention (based on the evidence-based ASMA) to assist adolescents with uncontrolled asthma to learn how to manage their illness and improve their asthma control. In addition to developing a highly novel product for adolescents with asthma, the research proposed for this project will address unique scientific questions. Despite the high asthma prevalence among adolescents, few interventions have specifically targeted adolescents. This study is innovative in that it is among the few to focus on adolescents, who are often overlooked by the healthcare system. This research will assess factors associated with successful implementation of CampAir, thereby providing new information regarding how e-health interventions can be effectively developed and implemented for use with adolescents with asthma. To ensure the software and website function as intended, investigators will systematically test each of the seven CampAir modules with target end users. Participants will review one module per week for seven weeks. As part of each module, participants will also complete a daily asthma checklist. Following the review of each module, participants will be prompted to complete measures assessing technology acceptability and usability and product quality. Results will be used to modify and finalize the user interface and navigation to maximize usability. Results are expected to support that all participants find the CampAir product to be of high quality and technical acceptability. Participants are expected to rate the usability and relevance of the CampAir product highly. All participants are expected to advocate use of the product and recommend continued development and testing.

Study Type

Describes the nature of a clinical study. Study types include interventional studies (also called clinical trials), observational studies (including patient registries), and expanded access.
Interventional

Enrollment (Actual)

Enrollment

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

9 years to 14 years (Child, Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

Other: End User Iterative Testing - CampAir
To ensure the software and website function as intended, investigators will systematically test each of the seven CampAir modules with target end users. Participants will review one module per week for seven weeks. As part of each module, participants will also complete a daily asthma checklist. Following the review of each module, participants will be prompted to complete measures assessing technology acceptability and usability and product quality.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Product Evaluation
Time Frame: Once per module (One Evaluation per week for seven weeks)
Participants will complete a brief online survey to rate the content modules and other components of the CampAir program in the areas of (a) engagement, (b) quality of content, (c) quality of flow, (d) value, (e) usefulness, (f) relevance to real-life, (g) usability. Open-ended questions will also be included to gather qualitative comments and recommendations for each area assessed. This measure will be repeated for each review with questions tailored to the particular components and modules reviewed.
