Summary

Approximately 1.1 million children and young people in the United Kingdom (UK) are living with asthma, making it the most common chronic disease in children in the UK. Our recent observational study found that poor asthma control, poor medication adherence, and a poor understanding of asthma were key unmet needs of secondary school children. Following the findings from an earlier study, the investigators have developed a preliminary theory-based multi-faceted intervention, aimed at improving asthma self-management and control in young people.

My Asthma in School

The intervention will include three arms. During the theatre workshop, the children will watch a theatre performance, and engage in a discussion at the end of the play, about what they have watched. The self-management workshops will cover a range of topics identified as barriers to self-management in our earlier study, and will be delivered to children with asthma only. The control group will receive usual care during the intervention.
