Asthma Control: Increased Physical Activity in Young Adults

NCT04944199 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 15

Last updated 2022-08-04

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Investigators want to study to see if patients who participate in a physical activity intervention involving increasing daily step counts will have better mini asthma quality of life questionnaire (Mini AQLQ) scores at the end of the study period compared to patients that are in the control group and do not increase daily step counts. Participants will be randomized into the two groups.

Conditions

  • Asthma in Young Adults

Interventions

OTHER

Physical Activity

Intervention group participants will be enrolled in a standardized step-based program to gradually increase their physical activity. Daily steps will be measured via a pedometer application on a smartphone or wearable device, with a gradual increase in the goal on a weekly basis, with a target intervention of around 4-6 weeks in total. The first week's step count will be used to calculate a baseline step count for the week. At the start of each week, the participants will be asked to increase their daily step counts by 1,000.
