Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This is a study to investigate acceptability and feasibility of a novel protocol on exposure-based CBT for asthma-related fear delivered over the Internet (Internet-CBT).

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Asthma is one of the most common chronic diseases around the world, with a high prevalence of anxiety disorders. In a prior study (ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT03158194) a protocol for exposure-based CBT was developed for asthma-related anxiety. The aim of the current study is to evaluate acceptability and feasibility of our protocol for asthma-related fear when delivered over the Internet (Internet-CBT). The plan is to include 30 participants that will all receive the intervention in this uncontrolled feasibility study.
