Trial Outcomes & Findings for Supporting Asthma Management Behaviors in Aging Adults (NCT NCT02316223)
NCT ID: NCT02316223
Last Updated: 2021-10-06
Results Overview
The Asthma Control Test™ is a quick test for people with asthma 12 years and older. The ACT is a 5 items, with 4-week recall (on symptoms and daily functioning) patient self-administered tool for identifying those with poorly controlled asthma. Each items is scored on a 5-point scale (for symptoms and activities: 1=all the time to 5= not at all; for asthma control rating: 1=not controlled at all to 5=completely controlled), The total scores range from 5 (poor control of asthma) to 25 (complete control of asthma), with higher scores reflecting greater asthma control. It provides a numerical score to help assess asthma control at 12 months compared to baseline.

Clinic-based Care Coordination
Supporting Asthma Management Behaviors in Aging Adults (SAMBA): The SAMBA program will be led by an asthma care coach (ACC). The ACC will provide education, goal setting, and general self-management support with assigned patients and coordinate with PCPs through in-person and phone contacts over 12 months.

Home-based Care Coordination
Supporting Asthma Management Behaviors in Aging Adults (SAMBA): The SAMBA program will be led by an asthma care coach (ACC) and the home program by a community health worker (CHW). The ACC and CHW will provide education, goal setting, and general self-management support with assigned patients and coordinate with PCPs through in-person and phone contacts over 12 months.

The mini AQLQ is a 15-item self-administered questionnaire, each question scored on a 7-point scale, from 1 (all of the time) to 7 (none of the time) for the first 11 questions, and 1 (totally limited) to 7 (not at all limited) for the last 4 question , with total scale as an average from 1 to 7, with higher score indicating better quality of life or less impairment.
