Trial Outcomes & Findings for Peer Led Asthma Self Management for Adolescents: PLASMA (NCT NCT02293499)
NCT ID: NCT02293499
Last Updated: 2021-04-08
Results Overview
a 23-item instrument, 118 consists of three subdomains: activity limitation (5 items), emotional function (8 items), and symptoms (10 items). Higher scores indicate better levels of functioning. This scale has proved a valid and reliable measure of asthma-specific quality of life in adolescents. Mean scores are reported, and range from 1 to 7. Higher score indicating higher quality of life.

This is one of the 3 subscales of Asthma Self-Management Indices. This subscale (9 items total) measures the number of steps taken to manage symptoms once they occur, and two response options are given, 0=no and 1=yes. Items 1-4, 6, 8 \& 9 were summed for a total count of management steps taken, with possible scores ranging from 0 to 7. The higher the sum scores, the greater the number of steps taken to manage symptoms.
