Treatment and study plan

SMART ARM

Device

The smartphone application for self-management of Asthma offers symptom diary, general information for asthma, the information of asthma drugs,the guideline for inhaler and the specific action plan according to daily symptom and FEV1.

Other names: SMART-Asthma

Primary outcomes

  1. The efficacy of smartphone application for asthma control test (ACT)and quality of life

    Time frame: at least 2 times a week

    Using ACT and ALQL score (QoL), we will investigate the efficacy of smanrtphone application for control of asthma compared to smartphone app. using group and smartphone app. non-using group

Secondary outcomes

  1. FEV1 (Forced expiratory volume in 1 second ) and FVC (Forced vital capacity)

    Time frame: at least 1 time a month

    Using spirometer to check the variation of FEV1,we will investigate the efficacy of smanrtphone application for control of asthma compared to smartphone app. using group and smartphone app. non-using group

  2. Acute exacerbation of bronchial asthma

    Time frame: at least 1 time a week

    Using medical record and questionaire of acute exacerbation,we will investigate the efficacy of smanrtphone application for control of asthma compared to smartphone app. using group and smartphone app. non-using group
