Brief Summary

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

The aim of this randomized controlled trial was to examine the effect of education given to asthmatic children and their parents by taking health literacy into account on disease self-management.

The study was conducted with 88 children and their parents between October 2018 and July 2019. While education and booklets were given to both children and parents in intervention group 1, only the children were given the education and the booklets in intervention group 2. There was no intervention applied for the control group. Post-test was performed 3 weeks after the education and then follow-ups were carried out in the next three months over the phone.
