ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is exploring how telemedicine-based education can help caregivers improve asthma control in children who are struggling with uncontrolled asthma. The goal is to provide caregivers with the knowledge and resources they need to manage their child's condition more effectively. By using remote consultations and guidance, the study aims to help caregivers feel more confident in their ability to support their child's asthma management, which can lead to better health outcomes for the children involved.

To be eligible for the trial, children aged between 4 and 18 years old who have been diagnosed with uncontrolled asthma according to specific guidelines can participate, as long as they have been receiving care at a pediatric asthma unit for at least one month. However, the study cannot include children who have siblings in the trial or those who are currently involved in another clinical study. Participants can expect to receive education and support through telemedicine sessions, which are designed to help them understand and manage asthma better. This trial is actively recruiting participants who meet these criteria.
