RecruitingNA

Sponsor: Montefiore Medical Center

Conditions: Asthma in Children

Interventions: PRAGMATIC-S

The overall goal of this research study is to evaluate a multi-level program called PRAGMATIC-S to improve the delivery of guideline-based asthma care through a unique partnership between clinical practices and schools. PRAGMATIC-S represents a novel approach that addresses multiple barriers to adherence by bridging primary care and schools, ensuring delivery of guideline-based asthma care to urban children across these settings thereby improving adherence to therapy and clinical outcomes.
