Official title
Effectiveness of Telemedicine-Based Education for Caregivers on Asthma Control in Children With Uncontrolled Asthma: A Randomized Controlled Trial
Overview
Asthma control in pediatric patients remains a critical issue for healthcare providers. Telemedicine has emerged as an effective solution for overcoming distance barriers in healthcare delivery. This study aims to utilize telemedicine-based education for caregivers to improve asthma control in children with uncontrolled asthma. By providing remote guidance and support, the study seeks to enhance caregivers' knowledge and management practices, ultimately leading to better asthma outcomes for pediatric patients.
