Factors Influencing Pediatric Asthma (FIPA)

October 4, 2017 updated by: Missouri Breaks Industries Research, Inc.
Asthma is a chronic lung disease with serious morbidity and potential mortality. Multiple physiologic, environmental and social conditions impact the prevalence and severity of asthma. Even when diagnosed, effective control can be impeded by improper use of medication, not understanding or being unable to avoid environmental triggers, lack of continuity in follow-up care, and lack of an asthma action plan. American Indians are especially at-risk for health problems related to asthma. American Indians have the highest asthma rate among single-race groups; 18.5% of American Indians are diagnosed with asthma, while only 11% are diagnosed with asthma in the general population but little is known about why this is true. Asthma is a prototypic example of the interaction of biologic, environmental and psychosocial influences on disease and this study investigated the possible improvement in asthma control from an intensive educational intervention.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Completed

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

The primary aim of this study was to test the hypothesis that intensive patient education regarding self-directed, stepped care will result in reduced morbidity and medical care utilization, while increasing quality of life.

One half (54) of the identified cases will be randomized to receive the previously established "BREATHE" study educational program, emphasizing patient-centered, self management of asthma. Periodic follow-up through personal contact and surveillance of IHS RPMS or other medical provider records was conducted.

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

6 years to 17 years (Child)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Cases must be "American Indian" (eligibile for care within the Indian Health Service); and at least 2 of the following 3 criteria:

    1. a diagnosis of asthma on at least 2 occasions by more than one provider during the past 2 years.
    2. refills of asthma treatment medications on at least 2 occasions during the past 2 years.
    3. Improvement of spirometry FEV1 of 20% with use of albuterol MDI or nebulizer.

  • Controls meet the same demographic criteria as cases, but must also meet all of the following criteria.

    2. No prescriptions of any asthma meds during the past 2 years.
    3. FEV1 on spirometry greater than 80% of predicted value Exclusion Criteria:

Exclusion Criteria:

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm

Participant Group / Arm

A group or subgroup of participants in a clinical trial that receives a specific intervention/treatment, or no intervention, according to the trial's protocol.
Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.
Experimental: Intensive Asthma Education
One half (54) of the identified cases were randomized to receive the previously established "BREATHE" study educational program, emphasizing patient-centered, self management of asthma. Periodic follow-up through personal contact and surveillance of IHS RPMS or other medical provider records was conducted.
Behavioral: Intensive Asthma Education
One half (54) of the identified cases were randomized to receive the previously established "BREATHE" study educational program, emphasizing patient-centered, self management of asthma. Periodic follow-up through personal contact and surveillance of IHS RPMS or other medical provider records was conducted.
No Intervention: Routine Asthma Education Literature
The remaining 54 cases were randomized to the "control" arm and received written materials related to patient-centered asthma control.
