Abstract

Authors’ conclusions: e-AT use led to high and sustained participation in self-monitoring and improved asthma outcomes. Dissemination of this care model has potential to broadly improve pediatric ambulatory asthma care.

Reviewers’ commentary: the study proposes the use of a computer program to support asthma self-control for children, which seems to improve outcomes, but with significant difficulties in its follow-up.
