Active Airways for Children and Young People With Asthma

9 de junio de 2026 actualizado por: University of Leicester

The Feasibility of an Exercise and Asthma Educational Programme 'Active Airways' on Health Outcomes in Children and Young People With Asthma With All Severities

What is this study about? The investigators want to see if exercise and education sessions can help children and young people (aged 10-17) with asthma, manage the participants asthma better.

The investigators will place participants that are recruited to this study into one of three groups by a computer (randomly):

Group 1:

Usual Care: Continue with normal asthma treatment.

Group 2:

Education: Usual care + a 45-minute online asthma education class once a week.

Group 3:

Exercise & Education: Usual care + 3 exercise sessions a week and asthma education classes.

Descripción detallada

This research aims to identify if an exercise and/or asthma education programme, called 'Active Airways', is feasible and acceptable in the paediatric asthma patient. Feasibility, the primary outcome of this study, will be evaluated by calculating the percentage of people approached who participate in the intervention (recruitment) and the percentage who complete the intervention (retention and adherence). The investigators also want to see if the Active Airways programme could improve cardiorespiratory fitness, quality of life and lung function, reduce asthma attacks and reduce healthcare use.

¿Qué mide el estudio?

Medidas de resultado primarias

Medida de resultado
Medida Descripción
Periodo de tiempo
Recruitment
Periodo de tiempo: 12 weeks
The percentage of children approached who participate in the intervention (recruitment)
12 weeks
Retention
Periodo de tiempo: 12 weeks
The percentage of participants that complete the intervention with a retention rate of >70%
12 weeks

Medidas de resultado secundarias

Medida de resultado
Medida Descripción
Periodo de tiempo
Adherence to programme
Periodo de tiempo: 12 weeks
Participant engagement measured through attendance rates.
12 weeks
Wrist worn accelerometers
Periodo de tiempo: 12 weeks
Device wear time compliance during the 12-week study, aiming for =>10 hours a day
12 weeks
Focus groups on patients experience to barriers to an exercise programme
Periodo de tiempo: 12 weeks
Lived experience of the barriers for children with asthma to taking part in an exercise programme, measured through qualitative focus groups.
12 weeks
Health beliefs
Periodo de tiempo: 12 weeks
Baseline demographics from participants will be recorded from medical records
12 weeks
Respiratory (throat) samples
Periodo de tiempo: Baseline, 12 weeks, 6 months and 1 year.
Throat samples will be taken and microbial analysis for assessing microbial diversity through 16S rRNA sequencing, to provide relative abundance of bacterial groups. A greater bacterial diversity in the respiratory sample is considered a sign of heathier and more resilient microbial community. This could lead to fewer asthma exacerbations and better asthma control.
Baseline, 12 weeks, 6 months and 1 year.
Quality of life of participants using the paeditric quality of life inventory (asthma module)
Periodo de tiempo: Baseline, 12 weeks, 6 months and 1 year
Measured through the paediatric quality of life asthma module to measure how asthma affects the health-related quality of life using 28 items divided into 4 domains, higher scores mean better quality of life and lower scores mean greater asthma-related impairment.
Baseline, 12 weeks, 6 months and 1 year
Effectiveness of the programme
Periodo de tiempo: Baseline, 12 weeks, 6 months and 1 year.
Cardiorespiratory fitness (maximal oxygen uptake measured by VO2 max)
Baseline, 12 weeks, 6 months and 1 year.
Respiratory (nasal) samples
Periodo de tiempo: Baseline, 12 weeks, 6 months and 1 year.
Nasal samples will be taken and microbial analysis for assessing microbial diversity through 16S rRNA sequencing, to provide relative abundance of bacterial groups. A greater bacterial diversity in the respiratory sample is considered a sign of a heathier and more resilient microbial community. This could lead to fewer asthma exacerbations and better asthma control.
Baseline, 12 weeks, 6 months and 1 year.
Gut samples
Periodo de tiempo: Baseline, 12 weeks, 6 months and 1 year.
Stool samples will be taken and microbial analysis for assessing microbial diversity through 16S rRNA sequencing, to provide relative abundance of bacterial groups. A greater bacterial diversity in the stool sample is considered a sign of heathier and more resilient microbial community which could lead to fewer asthma exacerbations and better asthma control.
Baseline, 12 weeks, 6 months and 1 year.
Focus groups on motivators for an exercise programme
Periodo de tiempo: 12 weeks
Lived experience of the motivators for children and young people with asthma to taking part in an exercise programme, measured through qualitative focus groups.
