Breathe With Ease: A Unique Approach to Managing Stress (BEAMS)

22 augustus 2019 bijgewerkt door: Stephen J. Teach, MD, MPH

Improving Asthma Outcomes Through Stress Management

Uncontrolled asthma in at-risk youth responds well to guideline-based therapy when patients remain adherent to their management plans. Adherence to inhaled corticosteroids (ICS), when indicated for persistent or uncontrolled asthma, is a critical component of most asthma management plans, and other self-management practices such as trigger avoidance are similarly related to improved asthma outcomes. Adherence to self-management practices is mediated by multiple factors, including psychosocial stress of parents and their children.

A targeted, culturally appropriate intervention to manage psychosocial stress among the parents of young, African American, and socioeconomically disadvantaged urban children with asthma who are receiving guideline-based care may improve asthma self-management, and therefore asthma outcomes.

Our overall aim is to implement and evaluate a highly collaborative, multi-dimensional, culturally appropriate and community-based asthma intervention to augment existing guideline-based best practice. The intervention will target the parents of at-risk, urban, African American youth, and will employ individualized psychosocial stress management and peer support.

Our overall aim is to implement and evaluate a highly collaborative, multi-dimensional, culturally appropriate and community-based asthma intervention to augment existing guideline-based best practice. The intervention will target the parents of at-risk, urban, African American youth, and will employ individualized psychosocial stress management and peer support.

We will conduct a single blind, prospective randomized controlled trial comparing the IMPACT DC Asthma Clinic's existing intervention of guideline-based clinical care, education, and short-term care coordination (usual care) to usual care plus parental stress management in a cohort of up to 200 parent-child dyads of AA youth aged 4-12 years.

  • exclusionary psychiatric condition, including but not limited to psychosis, based on the screening form at recruitment
  • enrolled in another asthma research study.

Inclusion criteria (Child):

Actieve vergelijker: Usual Care
IMPACT DC Asthma Clinic intervention of guideline-based clinical care, education, and short-term care coordination
IMPACT DC Asthma Clinic intervention of guideline-based clinical care, education, and short-term care coordination
Experimenteel: Intervention
Parental stress management in addition to IMPACT DC intervention of guideline-based clinical care, education, and short-term care coordination.
The intervention for this study is a multi-dimensional stress management program designed to be responsive to parent and other stakeholder preferences. The intervention will have two separate yet coordinated components: one-on-one stress management sessions and peer group sessions led by "community wellness coaches."
