Summary
This trial uses video calls and sensors to help young people with asthma take their medication regularly. It targets those who struggle with sticking to their prescribed treatment, aiming to improve their health by providing support and reminders.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for young adults aged 12-35 with uncontrolled asthma and poor medication adherence. Participants must have an Asthma Control Test score ≤19 or experience significant symptoms, use a compatible inhaler, speak English or Spanish, and be able to engage in telehealthcare.
What is being tested?
The MATCH study tests if Telehealthcare Medication Therapy Management (MTM) via video calls and Electronic Adherence Self-Management (EAM) can improve medication adherence in adolescents and young adults with poorly controlled asthma.
What are the potential side effects?
Since the interventions involve management techniques rather than medications, direct side effects are not expected. However, participants may experience discomfort or privacy concerns related to using technology for health monitoring.

Prior Approvals
Other Research
Common asthma treatments include inhaled corticosteroids (ICS), long-acting beta agonists (LABA), and long-acting muscarinic antagonists (LAMA). ICS work by reducing inflammation in the airways, LABAs relax the muscles around the airways to improve airflow, and LAMAs block muscarinic receptors to prevent bronchoconstriction.
These mechanisms are vital for asthma patients as they help manage symptoms, prevent exacerbations, and improve lung function, thereby enhancing quality of life and reducing the risk of hospitalizations.
