Asthma Clinical Trial - CDC Medicaid Asthma Home Visit Project

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

Asthmatic children age 3-17 from low income households in King County are randomly assigned into a community health worker (CHW) intervention group and a control group. The intervention is in-home education and support related to asthma self-management. The main outcome measures are asthma symptom-free days, caretaker's asthma-related quality of life score, and health care utilization for asthma measured at baseline and 12 months after baseline enrollment.

Clinical Trial Description

This is a randomized controlled trial. Potentially eligible subjects come from lists generated by health plans (Community Health Plan of Washington and Molina, who insure the majority of Medicaid enrollees in King County), individuals referred by primary care providers, and self referral. Eligible subjects that agree to participate are randomly assigned into a CHW intervention group or a control group. We expected to complete the study with 200 in each group.

The intervention is in-home education and support by a community health worker (CHW). At the first home visit, the CHW assesses the participant's knowledge and skills related to asthma self-management, current status of the child's asthma, and resources and support for asthma self-management using a baseline questionnaire. The CHW inspects the home environment using an Environmental Home Checklist to identify environmental triggers that can cause asthma symptoms and affect asthma control. The CHW makes up to three follow-up visits and two telephone visits during the year the participant is in the study. Participants receive resources to help them control asthma, including vacuum cleaner, dust covers for a pillow and mattress and a "green" cleaning kit with cleaning supplies.

The control group receives standard asthma care, as provided by a primary health care provider during the 12 months after enrollment. When the intervention period is over, the control group receives one visit with a CHW and the resources provided to the intervention group participants.

The main outcome variables include asthma symptom-free days, caretaker asthma-related quality of life, and urgent health care utilization. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
