Summary

Researchers are piloting REACH, a service model that connects families, schools, and healthcare providers to improve asthma care for children. The study enrolls parents and children in partner school districts, along with school nurses and providers. REACH combines asthma education, communication strategies, and a shared dashboard for records and messages. The team will measure asthma knowledge, how well the model is implemented, guideline adherence, school connectedness, and healthcare use such as emergency visits and hospitalizations.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
REACH, a school-based care coordination service model combining communication strategies, asthma education, and a shared records dashboard
What this could lead to
If it works, this could give schools and clinics a practical way to share information and help children with asthma stay healthier and miss fewer school days.
What could go wrong
This is a pilot study testing whether the model can be delivered and measured, not whether it definitively improves health. Results may not apply to schools with different resources or families who cannot access email and a computer.
