Overview
Brief Summary
This study will increase knowledge about the feasibility and effect on patient satisfaction and clinical outcomes of using an electronic Shared Decision Making (SDM) application (app) for patients with asthma in the allergy/immunology clinic visit setting. SDM is defined as an approach where clinicians and patients share the best available evidence when faced with the task of making decisions, and where patients are supported to consider options and make informed choices.
