Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Many urban asthma emergency room patients lack effective self-management. Most current training programs are administered in outpatient settings and have low attendance rates for emergency room patients. There is a great need to develop effective programs that can be easily administered in the emergency room for patients who, in many cases, are not present in other settings to receive education. This proposal builds on preliminary studies and is tailored to provide emergency room patients with basic education during "a teachable moment" when they may be most receptive to asthma information.
DESIGN NARRATIVE:
Patients will be recruited from two New York City urban emergency rooms or inpatient settings and randomized to the intervention or control groups. Intervention patients will receive a protocol focusing on asthma self-management, education, self-efficacy, and social support, with telephone reinforcement for 8 weeks. Control patients will receive standard emergency room education about asthma.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
1
Intervention participants will receive information focusing on asthma self-management, education, self-efficacy, and social support while in the hospital emergency room. Telephone reinforcement will occur for 8 weeks following study entry.
Asthma Education in Adults
The intervention involves enhancing asthma education, asthma self-efficacy and asthma-related social support and is administered during a single in-person session in the ED (or hospital for admitted patients) followed by telephone reinforcement.
2
Participants in the control group will receive standard emergency room education about asthma.
Standard Emergency Room Asthma Education
Participants will receive standard emergency room education about asthma.
