Optimising Inhaler Technique and Asthma Self-management in Children and Young People

The aim of this randomised pilot study is to explore ways to optimise a care pathway that results in children and young people with asthma being better trained in the basics of asthma care and better able to apply self-management at the earliest possible stage. This will involve comparing a novel augmented teaching method (Video directly observed therapy (v-DOT)) with standard training in achieving and sustaining mastery of inhaler and nasal spray technique and the understanding of a personalised asthma action plan (PAAP).
