Technology-Assisted Stepped Care Study (TASC Phase 3)
9. marts 2022 opdateret af: Children's Hospital Medical Center, Cincinnati
Technology Assisted Stepped Care (TASC): Phase 3
The overall goal of this project is to demonstrate the feasibility, implementation, and preliminary efficacy of a technology-assisted stepped care (TASC) adherence-promotion intervention in adolescents with asthma.
This is the third phase (Phase 3) of a three-phase project to test the preliminary efficacy of a technology-assisted stepped care (TASC) intervention.
In Phase 1, we developed the intervention using patient and provider feedback from focus groups.
In Phase 2 we refined the developed intervention by having five adolescents from the focus groups test the intervention for feasibility.
In this third phase, we will enroll up to 50 adolescents to pilot-test the refined intervention for preliminary efficacy.

Detaljeret beskrivelse
Up to fifty adolescents with asthma will be enrolled in an open label pilot trial of the TASC adherence-promotion intervention for a duration of twelve months.
First, participants will complete baseline questionnaires related to demographic, and clinical predictors of adherence and asthma and a 4 week run-in phase to assess baseline adherence using electronic inhaler monitoring with a cellphone that is provided to them.
Following the run-in period, all participants will receive Step 1 of the TASC intervention for a minimum of 4 weeks.
Step 1 (Information) will include electronic educational information related to asthma symptoms and triggers, attacks, self-monitoring, treatments, action plans, and automated text message medication reminders.
Following the initial four weeks of Step 1, adherence will be evaluated and a rate of less than 68% will serve as the cause for "stepping up" to the next level of the intervention.
Adherence checks will continue to occur every four weeks for the duration of the study and adherence <68% will prompt movement from one level of treatment to the next.
Participants may remain at a treatment level for more than four weeks and may complete 1, 2, or 3 interventions steps during the 5 month study depending on the adolescent's adherence.
Step 2 (Motivation) will include electronic monitoring of adherence and personally tailored feedback via text messages.
Adolescents will be given access to the adherence tracking cellphone app and graphs of their inhaler adherence.
Adolescents will also receive brief, personalized text messages that provide supportive motivation and directive, tangible actions.
Step 3 (Behavioral) will include problem-solving telehealth intervention with a trained clinician.
Four telehealth sessions individually tailored to the unique needs and barriers of the adolescent will be provided.
The primary outcome measure will be electronically-monitored adherence assessed at post-treatment.
Secondary outcomes include asthma severity as well as process evaluation questions and quantitative measures of feasibility, acceptability, and satisfaction to demonstrate implementation.
Participants will remain in the study for an additional 7 months after they complete month 5 of the study.
For the remaining 7 months, participants will be randomized to one of two booster session patterns with the goal to improve inhaler adherence.
The statistician will make the randomization schedule and the principle investigator will maintain the randomization schedule.
Two different booster patterns are being used to test which pattern will be most effective.
The first booster session pattern will include booster sessions at the end of month 6, 8, and 12.
The second booster session pattern will include booster sessions at the end of month 6, 7, 8, 10, and 12. Booster sessions will review content provided during the intervention and the intervention delivery method will be consistent with the participants final intervention step.
Participants will also continue to complete monthly check-ins with the study coordinator to complete the Composite Asthma Severity Index, the Asthma Control Test, and a spirometry test.

Electronic Monitoring
Tidsramme: 12 months
|
The Propeller Health monitoring system includes a Bluetooth enabled sensor that attaches to the patient's inhaler.
This sensor records every dose, or "puff", the patient takes and sends it to a corresponding online database that is accessible to study staff.
Participants will be given this sensor at baseline.

Lung Function Assessment
Tidsramme: Baseline assessment and then once a month for 12 months
|
The mobile spirometer records multiple parameters of the patient's lung function including forced expiratory volume, peak expiratory flow, forced vital capacity, and forced expiratory flow.
The spirometer sends the values to the corresponding mobile phone application, Propeller Health, which is directly accessible to the patient.
|
Baseline assessment and then once a month for 12 months
|
|
Composite Asthma Severity Index (CASI)
Tidsramme: Baseline assessment and then once a month for 12 months
|
The participants' composite asthma severity index score will be calculated through the TreatSmart program.
TreatSmart will be used to determine the participant's symptom burden, health care utilization, systemic corticosteroid use, and current medication use to determine the level of asthma severity/control the participant has.
The program also makes an initial treatment recommendation based on the National Asthma Education and Prevention Program (NAEPP asthma guidelines).
Individuals are placed in Step 1 through Step 6 depending on the strength and frequency of their inhaled corticosteroid (1 being low dose and 6 being a high dose).
In addition, individuals are categorized as very poorly controlled, not well controlled, or well controlled based on how frequently they have had asthma symptoms or used their rescue inhaler, gone to the hospital or urgent care, or received steroids for asthma symptoms.
|
Baseline assessment and then once a month for 12 months
|
|
Asthma Control Test (ACT)
Tidsramme: Baseline assessment and then once a month for 12 months
|
The ACT will be used as a measure of disease severity in this study.
The ACT is a 5-question scoring tool designed for patients with asthma who are 12 years and older.
The questions ask the patient to rate their asthma severity, symptom frequency, control, and inhaler use on a scale of 1-5.
The total score is calculated by the sum of each response, which determines how well-controlled the patient's asthma is on a scale from 5-25.
|
Baseline assessment and then once a month for 12 months
|
|
Attendance/Participation rates

Participation rates will be measured 3 different ways.
The first measure will be how often participants accessed the electronic material (educational materials and/or Propeller Health app), the second measure will be how many responses to directive text messaging were received, and the third measure will be attendance to the telehealth sessions.
