简要总结
The purpose of this randomized crossover study is to determine the efficacy of participant designed medication reminders on asthma control, asthma related quality of life,and medication adherence. In addition, this study will provide data regarding the usage, usability, acceptability of an online system designed for creating text message reminders. It is hypothesized that the teens receiving text message reminders will report having greater quality of life related to their asthma, a reported increase in the control of their asthma, and increased adherence to their medication regimen compared to those teens that are not receiving the text message reminders.
详细描述
Adolescents are typically less adept at managing chronic illnesses and adhering to treatment plans than are parents of younger children. Adolescents are also typically "early adopters" to technological solutions and text messages are integral in today's teen culture. Text messages are gaining acceptance in health care both as appointment reminders and direct inquiries. The purpose of this randomized crossover study is to examine the effect of participant designed medication reminders on asthma control, asthma related quality of life, and medication adherence. In addition, this study will provide data regarding the usage, usability, and acceptability of an online system designed for creating text message reminders.

结局指标
主要结局
Asthma Control Test (ACT)
时间窗: Change from Baseline on ACT at 3 months (1st arm), Change from Baseline on ACT at 6 months (2nd arm)
The teen will complete the Asthma Control Test (ACT), a validated 5-item Likert scale test that asks them to detail their asthma symptoms. These are questions consistent with those that would be asked by a clinician (i.e., how many times have you used your fast-acting inhaler in the past four weeks, how often does asthma limit your activities). The responses to these questions will also be used to calculate the teen's asthma control.
次要结局
- The Pediatric Quality of Life Scale Version 4.0 Teen Report (ages 13- 18) (PedsQL)(Change from Baseline on PedsQL at 3 months (1st arm), Change from Baseline on PedsQL at 6 months (2nd arm))
- Adherence(Change from Baseline in Adherence at 3 months (1st arm), Change from Baseline in Adherence at 6 months (2nd arm))
