Effectiveness

How Aminophyllin Affects Patients

Aminophylline is a drug made from the compound theophylline. It has several effects on the body, such as increasing alertness, stimulating muscles, and relaxing the muscles in the airways. It also causes an increase in urine production and more acid to be produced in the stomach.

How Aminophyllin works in the body

Aminophylline is a medicine that helps to open up the airways in your lungs, making it easier to breathe. It does this by blocking certain enzymes and receptors that cause tightness and constriction in the airways. It also helps to reduce inflammation, which can make breathing even more difficult.

Community Program for Youth Well-Being

12 - 25
All Sexes
Waianae, HI

The goal of this pilot clinical trial is to learn if a community referral program can improve services for youth with mental health and chronic health conditions in a predominantly Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander community. The main questions the trial aims to address are: * What is the best way for a community health center to connect youth with community programs rooted in cultural practices and traditions? * Does participation in community programs engage youth and mental health and chronic health outcomes? Participants will: * Participate in a community program for youth that will strengthen connection to 'āina (land) and culture. Programs in the summer are 5 hours per day, 4 days a week, for 4 weeks. Programs in the school-year are 2.5 hours per day, 2 days a week, for 16 weeks. * Take surveys on their demographics, general well-being, mental health, and chronic health conditions they may have at 4 different times: Before the program begins, immediately after the program finishes, 3-4 months after finishing, and 6-8 months after finishing. * Have an adult family member complete surveys on their youth's demographics and general well-being at the same 4 times

Diagnostik Platform for Childhood Asthma and Ear Infections

3 - 17
All Sexes
Tuscon, AZ

This study evaluates the diagnostic performance, usability, and clinical utility of the Medentum Diagnostik platform, a multisensor device with integrated software and artificial intelligence, in pediatric patients with asthma and ENT conditions. Participants will be assigned to either home-based use of the Diagnostik platform with telehealth-supported clinician evaluation or standard in-person care. The primary objective is to assess agreement between AI-generated diagnoses and clinician diagnoses obtained during study encounters, including telehealth evaluations in the Diagnostik arm and in-person evaluations in the standard-of-care arm. Secondary objectives include evaluating agreement between AI-generated diagnoses and independent research team diagnoses, as well as assessing usability, patient and caregiver satisfaction, healthcare utilization, and clinical outcomes such as asthma control and symptom resolution. This study will also evaluate differences in healthcare utilization, including in-person visits, emergency care use, and time to diagnosis and treatment, between study groups.

AQI Information for Asthma

8 - 17
All Sexes
Pittsburgh, PA

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if adding Air Quality Index (AQI) information to asthma action plans works to improve asthma outcomes in children. It will also learn about children with asthma who report being more sensitive to outdoor air pollution. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does adding either information about the EPA-AQI or commercial AQI improve asthma outcomes over time? * Are there changes in nasal gene expression in children with asthma who report they are more sensitive to outdoor air pollution? Researchers will compare EPA-AQI and the commercial-AQI groups to a control group to either AQI works to improve asthma. Participants will: * Receive standardized outdoor air pollution education and an asthma action plan * Provide nose and blood specimens * Have visits every 4 weeks for 48 weeks, 10 will be conducted by telephone calls and 3 visits will be in person.
