NCT05659225

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to retrofit the existing electronic stethoscope, improve the quality and efficiency of signal acquisition and the intelligent degree of information processing, decrease the manual action of electronic stethoscopes implemented by parents of asthma children, simplify the process of data transfer and the user's operational cost using signal processing, artificial intelligence technology, thus decreasing the feedback cycle between patients and clinicians. Eventually, we will construct an intelligent monitoring system based on the modified electronic stethoscope and explore the interactive remote management approaches on children's asthma at the same time, thus achieving revolutionized remote management of asthma.

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • asthma control

    1 year

  • adherence to asthma treatment

    1 year

Other Outcomes (9)

  • SABA use

    1 year

  • systemic corticosteroid use

    1 year

  • lung function

Study Arms (2)

electronic stethoscope group

OTHER

During the study, subjects who diagnosed as asthma according to "Guideline for the diagnosis and optimal management of asthma in children" will be assigned to the control group and the electronic stethoscope group, and receive 12 months standard treatment, prescribed by the investigators according to "Guideline for the diagnosis and optimal management of asthma in children". The patient's caregiver will be instructed to use an electronic stethoscope to coordinate treatment and complete follow-up.

Interventions

Subjects diagnosed as pediatric asthma at Shanghai Children's Medical Center will be consecutively screened and eligible patients will be recruited (enrolment visit, V1). The subject will be assigned to the control group and the electronic stethoscope group and complete their future onsite visits (V2-V5) at Shanghai Children's Medical Center. The patient's caregiver who was assigned to the electronic stethoscope group will be instructed to install the electronic stethoscope developed by our team and its accessories, then they will be trained by investigators on how to use the electronic stethoscope.
