Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the effects of using bacterial lysate in bronchiolitis. The main question it aims to answer are: Does the use of bacterial lysate after bronchiolitis reduce the likelihood of preschool wheeze Participants will take either the active medicine or a placebo for 24 months.
Inhaler nonadherence is a common problem that has been estimated to account for approximately 60% of all asthma-related hospitalizations. Unfortunately, prior interventions to improve inhaler nonadherence have shown a lack of long-term success. This study proposes to assess the problem of non-adherence using a D&I research lens while testing a new inhaler approach to potentially ameliorate the detrimental consequences of maintenance inhaler nonadherence.
In our study, yoga asana and pranayama practices, which will be applied by video call from computer or phone, will be advantageous in terms of time, transportation and access to asthmatic children whose anxiety and anxiety levels increase during the COVID-19 period, whose access to hospital services is difficult, and whose physical activity level decreases due to the increase in screen time. It was aimed to examine the effects of these group exercises on Asthma Control, Functional Capacity, Physical Fitness, Physical Activity and Quality of Life. In the randomized controlled study, the treatment and control group will be determined by the closed envelope method, the control group will be placed on the waiting list and yoga will be practiced at the end of the study. The first and final evaluation will be done face to face in a clinical setting. The total duration will be 12 weeks, 3 days a week and 36 sessions between 8-8:40 in the evening. Researchers who will do yoga have a certificate of practice. Patients will be followed up in Hacettepe University Medical Faculty Asthma Allergy Clinic.
Our study aiming to look in improvement of Pediatric Respiratory Assessment Measure (PRAM) score as a primary outcome. The secondary outcomes involving the need for second step management, need for admission and possible side effects. It's double blinded randomized control study comparing Nebulized Epinephrine with standard treatment (salbutamol + Ipratropium) versus the standard treatment only in pediatric patient. A pilot study will be conducted before to detect the sample size required and data will be collected at deferent interval post treatment targeting intension to treat for analysis.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare soy isoflavones to placebo in children who at risk of asthma and have a genetic variation which results in them making more of a pro-inflammatory protein, plasminogen activator inhibitor-1. The main questions this trail seeks to answer is: will soy isoflavones decrease wheezing episodes in these children when given in the first year of life. Participants will be asked to ingest soy isoflavone or placebo twice daily mixed into a liquid or puree vehicle for 7 months from randomization. There will be 3 mandatory in-person visits, and 6 virtual visits in the first year. There will also be 11 monthly questionnaires and 1 in person visit in the observation year. Participants will have 4 nasal swabs, 3 blood draws, and also provide 4 stool samples over the course of the study.
The aim of this research is to examine the effect of mobile application game training designed for children aged 8-16 years on asthma management and quality of life. The population of the study will be children in the 8-12 age group who applied to the Mersin Pediatric Allergy, Asthma and Immunology Specialist's clinic, and the sample will consist of 78 children with asthma who meet the criteria for inclusion in the research. This age group has problems in solving abstract problems, it is necessary to embody it in order to facilitate the understanding of the disease process. Therefore, it is important to embody the training given in the increase of self-management related to the disease process of this age group. While determining the sample size of the study, Arıkan-Ayyıldız et al. (2016) based on the scientific study named "Efficacy of asthma education program on asthma control in children with uncontrolled asthma". In the Arıkan-Ayyıldız study, it was reported that the total mean score of "ACT" (Asthma Control Test-Asthma Control Test) was 13.8±3.4 in the experimental group and 15.6±3.2 in the control group. As a result of the Power analysis (G*Power 3.1.9.2) made according to these data; effect size = 0.78, with 95% confidence interval, 95% power, it was calculated that a total of 72 children with asthma, at least 36 in each group, should be included. Considering that there may be dropout and confounders during the research process, the number of groups was increased by 10%. The sample of the research; was a total of 78 children, including 39 children in each intervention group. In collecting research data; the Child and Parent Information Form, Inhaler Usage Skills Evaluation Form, Asthma Symptom and Treatment Need Scoring, DISABKIDS Asthma Scale will be used. A statistical package program (SPSS 20) will be used in the analysis of the research data. The statistical significance level was determined as 0.05. Kolmogorov-Smirnov will be used in the normality analysis of dependent variables. Chi-square and mean-to-means comparison tests will be used to determine the similarity of the groups. Appropriate parametric or non-parametric tests will be used according to the distribution's normality in comparing the means between groups and within groups.
The aim of this randomized controlled trial was to examine the effect of education given to asthmatic children and their parents by taking health literacy into account on disease self-management. The study was conducted with 88 children and their parents between October 2018 and July 2019. While education and booklets were given to both children and parents in intervention group 1, only the children were given the education and the booklets in intervention group 2. There was no intervention applied for the control group. Post-test was performed 3 weeks after the education and then follow-ups were carried out in the next three months over the phone.
The aim of the study was to evaluate if there were differences in oral findings between patients diagnosed with allergic rhinitis and/or asthma and a control group of health people.
Aim: The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of health care transition-based education on transition readiness and self-efficacy in adolescents (14-18 years) with asthma through a randomized controlled experimental study that integrated the literature, model, and research on the transition from pediatrics to adult care. The research hypotheses are as follows: H0: There is no significant difference between the intervention and control groups' mean "Transition Readiness Assessment Questionnaire", "Self Efficacy Scale for Children and Adolescents with Asthma" and "Mind the Gap Scale" scores before and after the education they received on health care transition. H1: The mean "Transition Readiness Assessment Questionnaire", "Self Efficacy Scale for Children and Adolescents with Asthma" and "Mind the Gap Scale" score of the treatment group is significantly higher than the control group after the education they received on health care transition.
The objective of this study is to investigate whether electromyography of the diaphragm during sleep in asthmatic children can be used to objectively monitor asthma control.
