Study Summary

This trial will test whether a school-based intervention that addresses key barriers to physical activity can reduce asthma morbidity among children with asthma.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for children in kindergarten to 5th grade with physician-diagnosed asthma, attending Bronx schools. They must have mild persistent or more severe asthma and be able to participate in physical activities. Caregivers must consent and speak English or Spanish. Children with other significant medical conditions, involved in another asthma study, or unable to stay in the area for 6 months are excluded.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The Asthma-PASS program aims to reduce barriers to physical activity (PA) for urban schoolchildren with asthma by providing a multifaceted intervention that includes education sessions on managing asthma effectively and promoting increased PA as part of their treatment plan.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial focuses on educational interventions and increasing physical activity rather than medication, there are no direct side effects like those associated with drugs. However, increased PA could potentially lead to an increase in short-term asthma symptoms if not managed properly.
