简要总结
This study evaluates the effectiveness of a PEFR-based mobile application for asthma treatment titration. Patients with physician-diagnosed asthma are enrolled and provided access to the app, which enables daily PEFR recording, automatic categorization into green, yellow, or red zones based on personal best values, and algorithm-guided treatment titration in accordance with standard asthma action plans. Baseline demographic data, asthma severity, and initial lung function parameters are recorded before intervention.Participants are followed up over a predefined period, during which changes in asthma control, exacerbation frequency, treatment adjustments, and healthcare utilization are assessed. The study compares outcomes before and after app-based PEFR-guided titration, focusing on improvements in objective airflow control, timely treatment escalation, and patient self-management, thereby evaluating the clinical utility of digital PEFR-guided asthma care.
