NCT03121157

Brief Summary

The purpose of the Detroit Young Adult Asthma Project is to test a technology based program to help African American young adults learn to better manage their asthma. Participants will be randomized to a multi-component technology-based intervention (MCTI) targeting asthma medication adherence or to a comparison control condition.

    Daily text messaging, Doser, and self-report

    Change from baseline at 3, 6, and 12 months

Secondary Outcomes (2)

    Change from baseline at 3, 6, and 12 months

  • Asthma Control

    Change from baseline at 3, 6, and 12 months

Intervention

EXPERIMENTAL

The intervention group will receive two sessions of computer-delivered motivational interviewing via CIAS software programmed to target adherence to medications. The intervention group will also receive text messaged adherence reminders between sessions. Both the computer-delivered sessions and text messages will be tailored to the participant using ecological momentary assessment.

Behavioral: Multi-Component Technology Based Intervention

Control

NO INTERVENTION

Control participants complete CIAS-delivered asthma education modules matched for length, location, and method of delivery of the intervention session. Control participants complete each module at their own pace and then complete a short quiz to assess their knowledge. Control participants also receive text messages between intervention sessions. Message content is the same for all control participants and contains general facts about asthma (not tailored). Message timing is not tailored and is sent at the same time every day (4:00 PM--time chosen to avoid AM and PM medication times but to not interfere with sleep and school activities).

Interventions

The intervention group receives two sessions of computer-delivered MI via software programmed to target adherence to medications and text messaged adherence reminders between sessions. Sessions are provided by an avatar. The intervention engages the youth with the avatar's communication of empathy, optimism, and autonomy support. The intervention focuses the youth on adherence and relevant health behaviors with feedback on adherence, asthma symptoms, and tailored education. Participants are guided in the planning process through goal setting activities. The length of the intervention sessions are about 30 minutes each, with the total duration of the visit (assessment and intervention) lasting about 1.5 hours.
