The onset of smartphone usage has provided new opportunities for managing patients outside the walls of healthcare facilities. The development of asthma-specific smartphone applications represents an excellent area for partnership between developers and medical teams for delivering therapeutic education at the required time and in a personalised way. Within this context, the overall goal of the AsthmaTrain study is to perform a first, small pilot study comparing a new French-language chat-bot guided asthma patient education programme (the 'Vik' application) with the classic, authority-approved patient education program at the University Hospitals of Montpellier, Montpellier, France. The primary objective is to compare a population of adult patients with asthma and participating in a standard patient education programme with a similar population participating in Vik-guided education programme in terms of change in overall scores on the Asthma Quality of Life Questionnaire (AQLQ).
