Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Telemedicine ArmExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
For the proposed study, participants will randomized to receive TM home assessments/interventions performed by a trained home visitor (HV) or standard of care asthma trigger education by the HV. Those who are randomized to TM home assessments/interventions will complete a baseline home assessment and two follow-up visits, 2 months apart. Visits will assess the presence of potential asthma triggers in the home and frequency of asthma symptoms/exacerbations. TM participants will be provided education and materials necessary to reduce asthma triggers in the home. Follow-up visits will assess the interval change in presence of asthma triggers, change in daily asthma symptoms/exacerbations, and participant/family retention of education.
Group II: Standard of Care EducationActive Control1 Intervention
For subjects randomized to receive standard of care asthma education, written and verbal information will be provided regarding identification and removal of potential asthma triggers in the home but no formal assessment of the home will be performed, nor will participants in this arm receive trigger reduction materials.
