NCT03329066

Brief Summary

The overall goal of this project is to develop and to preliminarily validate a novel intervention to be delivered in the high school setting that integrates two evidence-based, school-based interventions for urban adolescents with proven efficacy: (1) Asthma Self-Management for Adolescents (ASMA), an intervention for adolescents with uncontrolled asthma and (2) the Sleep-Smart Program (Sleep-Smart), which focuses on sleep hygiene and behaviors in urban adolescents. The aim for Phase I is to develop and integrate school-based interventions to improve asthma self-management and sleep hygiene in urban high school students via interviews. The aims for Phase II are: (1) to evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of the intervention procedures; and (2) to assess the preliminary evidence of the effects of the intervention on improving sleep quality in urban high school students with persistent asthma over a 2-month follow-up period. This record is for Phase II only.

Study Arms (3)

MAST - Managing Asthma & Sleep in Teens

EXPERIMENTAL

This is an eight week intervention consisting of 4 group and 4 individual tailored coaching sessions that focuses on both asthma and sleep. In this behavioral medicine intervention, teenagers learn ways to better care for their asthma and sleep hygiene. Teen sessions are delivered in school. Their caregivers will receive four educational booklets that correspond to each group session; topics mirror the objectives of each group and the booklets are sent at the time of each group.

Behavioral: MAST - Managing Asthma & Sleep in Teens

ASMA - Asthma Self-Management for Adol

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

ASMA is an evidence-based intervention for students, caregiver education, and education for students' medical providers. The student intervention consists of 3 group sessions \& 5 individual tailored coaching sessions. All sessions are held at school. The caregiver intervention includes 3 educational booklets that correspond to the timing of the student group and 4 brief telephone-counseling sessions to review the booklets, answer questions, and provide strategies to support adolescents' steps to care for their asthma. With caregiver permission, we mail students' healthcare providers a toolkit consisting of (1) a letter informing them their patient is participating in ASMA and is being directed to them for clinical evaluation and (2) summaries of key NHLBI guidelines for treating asthma.

Behavioral: ASMA - Asthma Self-Management for Adol

Information & Referral Control Group

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

The information-and-referral control intervention is a student-only intervention that consists of 3 group sessions and 5 individual sessions. Sessions are held once a week at school, where students will receive guideline-based information about asthma and other health topics relevant to adolescents (e.g., nutrition, safety). Students will be referred to their medical providers for asthma and other health concerns; if they do not have a provider, they are given referrals in their community.

Behavioral: Information & Referral Control Group

Interventions

This behavioral intervention will teach teenagers asthma self-care strategies and sleep hygiene.

MAST - Managing Asthma & Sleep in Teens

This behavioral intervention focuses only on asthma care.

ASMA - Asthma Self-Management for Adol

Students learn basic information about asthma and sleep, as well as other health topics relevant to teenagers.
