简要总结
It is an interventional prospective study. The study will assess the intervention of the "Therapeutic Education to the Patient (TEP)" on the quality of life in asthmatic children.
The patients will be enrolled from the 1st of May 2016 to the 31st of December 2016 in the outpatient clinic of Pediatric Allergology & Pulmonology (PAP) of Respiratory Disease Research Center (RDRC) within the Institute of Biomedicine and Molecular Immunology (IBIM) of the National Research Council (CNR) of Palermo (RDRC-IBIM CNR), Italy.

It is an interventional prospective study. The study will assess the intervention of the "Therapeutic Education to the Patient (TEP)" on the quality of life in asthmatic children.
The patients will be enrolled from the 1st of May 2016 to the 31st of December 2016 in the outpatient clinic of Pediatric Allergology & Pulmonology (PAP) of Respiratory Disease Research Center (RDRC) within the Institute of Biomedicine and Molecular Immunology (IBIM) of the National Research Council (CNR) of Palermo (RDRC-IBIM CNR), Italy.
25 Case Patients will follow the Therapeutic Education to the Patient (TEP) and 25 Control Patients will follow the usual care program.
The following procedures will be performed:
- Pediatric Asthma Quality of Life Questionnaire (PAQLQ);
- Children Asthma Control Test (C-ACT);
- Pediatric Caregiver Asthma Quality of Life Questionnaire (PCAQLQ);
- Familiar Empowerment Scale (FES);
- Functional respiratory tests: forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1), forced expiratory flow between 25% and 75% (FEF 25-75), forced vital capacity (FVC) and Peak expiratory flow (PEF); in addition, FEV1 and PEF will be daily recorded through the SmartOne device (Medical International Research s.r.l.), a portable flow peak meter for smartphones;
- Evaluation of the presence of Cotinine and Nicotine from Hair and Urine analysis respectively;
- Evaluation of levels of exposure to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) through urine analysis.
