Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Intervention consists of academic detailing in the EHR that follow national asthma guidelines and outreach worker care coordination for patients with persistent or uncontrolled asthma.
Comment: While caregivers reported on child outcomes, caregivers were not subjects of the study. See "Pre-Assignment Details" section within the Participant Flow module for more details.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Enhanced Multifaceted Prompting Intervention (eMPI)
The enhanced MPI program (eMPI) consists of innovative multi-level and team-based strategies to enable providers to effectively and efficiently adopt asthma care guidelines. eMPI uses guideline-based prompts at the time of an office visit to support providers' decision-making, increasing the likelihood that they will recommend corrective actions (i.e., preventive medication prescription) to improve asthma management.
eMPI
The core elements of the multilevel strategy for implementation include:
Direct Support for Providers' Delivery of Guideline-Based Care in Practice; Enhancements to Increase the Feasibility and Sustainability of eMPI; Involving Clinic Staff in Promoting and Supporting Use of Guidelines; Building Accountability and Commitment to Guideline-Based Care; Promoting Providers' Understanding, Acceptance, and Use of Guidelines
Enhanced Usual Care (eUC) Practices
Participants will receive a review packet of the National Asthma Education and Prevention Program (NAEPP) guidelines and educational resources for families. Children will be assessed for asthma severity and level of control at each visit as part of best-practice care, but active intervention components will not be provided.
No interventions assigned to this group

Eligibility Criteria
Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.
