Adolescents With Asthma
Ages 13-17 with an asthma diagnosis-both symptomatic and non-symptomatic- and with currently prescribed asthma medication. Automated Device for Asthma Monitoring (ADAM): Both groups of adolescents (asthma/non-asthma)wore a prototype ADAM device for 7 days as they went about their usual daily activities. At night, the device continued to monitor symptoms as it was placed in close proximity to the adolescent's head during sleep. The asthma group answered survey questions about the status of their symptoms and their usage of asthma medication every morning and every evening- entering their answers directly onto the monitoring device.
Adolescents Without Asthma
Ages 13-17 without an asthma diagnosis and without any other respiratory condition that presents with asthma-like symptoms. Automated Device for Asthma Monitoring (ADAM): Both groups of adolescents (asthma/non-asthma)wore a prototype ADAM device for 7 days as they went about their usual daily activities. At night, the device continued to monitor symptoms as it was placed in close proximity to the adolescent's head during sleep. The asthma group answered survey questions about the status of their symptoms and their usage of asthma medication every morning and every evening- entering their answers directly onto the monitoring device.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 7 days

Population: One subject in the non-asthma group failed to return the device after the 7-trial. Data from 22 participants (3 from the asthma group, 19 from non-asthma group) were not included in the analysis as no data were recorded (due to a mechanical issue) or data were too extreme (due to cough algorithm failure).

The device is supposed to detect and count the number of coughs per 24 hours and register the numbers into the device.
