Nurse-Led asthma program aims to help patients breathe easier
NCT ID NCT07635537
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Sep 18, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This pilot study tests a 12-month structured nursing program called RESPiraIA-Asma for adults with poorly controlled, non-severe asthma. The program combines education, inhaler training, home peak-flow monitoring, and personalized care plans, offered in-person, digitally, or mixed. The study will enroll 30 participants to see if the program is feasible and acceptable, and to look for early signs of improved asthma control and medication adherence.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- structured nursing intervention (education, inhaler training, self-monitoring, care plan)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could lead to a practical, scalable nursing program that helps people with asthma gain better control of their symptoms and stick to their medications.
- What could go wrong
- This is a very small pilot study (30 people) with no control group, so any improvements might be due to chance or extra attention. It is not designed to prove the intervention works, only to see if a larger trial is feasible.
