NCT04576442Completed
Evaluation of the Asthma Management Program to Promote Activity for Students in Schools (Asthma-PASS)
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 30 Oct 2026
Brief summary (registry, in English)
Physical activity (PA) is an important component of asthma management in children. Studies show that PA is associated with decreased severity of asthma symptoms, as well as improved disease control and quality of life. However, urban minority children with asthma face barriers to PA on multiple levels.The goal of this research project is to evaluate whether a multifaceted school-based intervention that addresses key barriers to physical activity reduces asthma morbidity among urban schoolchildren with asthma.
