This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This study is testing whether a school-based asthma program called BACK (Breath Asthma Care at Kids) can help children with uncontrolled asthma feel better and miss fewer school days. Your child would work with an asthma navigator and school nurse who provide education, help you understand your child's triggers, and connect your family with resources you need. The program has two versions: a standard package and an enhanced package with extra support for building stronger connections between your family, the school, and community resources.
Children in low-income and rural areas face big barriers to controlling their asthma—like lack of transportation, insurance gaps, and fewer preventive care visits—which leads to more emergency room visits, hospitalizations, and missed school days. This trial aims to prove that bringing asthma management into schools can close that gap and give every child a fair chance to stay healthy and succeed academically.
If your child is enrolled, they will be assigned to either receive the new school-based asthma program right away or to continue with usual school care for now (they'll get the program next school year). Those in the new program will meet with an asthma navigator and school nurse throughout the school year for education, check-ins, and help connecting with community resources like insurance assistance and transportation. The program focuses on teaching your child to recognize triggers, use their inhaler correctly, and manage their asthma day-to-day so they stay healthy and in school.
