Clinical Trial Summary

Using "big data" and artificial intelligence techniques, it becomes possible to envision algorithms for managing childhood asthma on a daily basis.

In order to develop such tools, it is necessary to determine with asthma stakeholders (children, parents, doctors) the parameters that future algorithms should seek to maximize / minimize.

The main objective of the study is to quantify the respective importance of each of the goals that children with asthma, parents, and their doctors seek to achieve when taking / supervising / prescribing a background therapy.

Description:

Using "big data" and artificial intelligence techniques, it becomes possible to envision algorithms for managing childhood asthma on a daily basis.

In order to develop such tools, it is necessary to determine with asthma stakeholders (children, parents, doctors) the parameters that future algorithms should seek to maximize / minimize.

The main objective of the study is to quantify the respective importance of each of the goals that children with asthma, parents, and their doctors seek to achieve when taking / supervising / prescribing a background therapy.

To do this, parents and children fill out a paper questionnaire, which is completed by their doctor, when they come to the hospital for consultation, hospitalization, or to perform lung function tests.

Concerning children and parents, these questionnaires include a part aimed at prioritizing each person's objectives and a second part collecting general information regarding their characteristics (age, sex, asthma history, etc.).

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Mean score attributed to each goal	Children, their parents (or holders of parental authority), and their doctors will be asked to allocate 20 points to 7 goals they want to prevent with the asthma controller treatment, and another 20 points to 5 goals regarding their treatment modality (more discreet, easier to take, etc). The score for each goal will range from 0 (objective not important to the respondent) to 20 (objective of major importance to the respondent).	Day 0
Secondary	Correlation of goals between respondents	For each goal, the correlation of the scores attributed by children, their parents, and their doctors, will be calculated.	Day 0
