Project Overview

The project aims to investigate the effectiveness of telemedicine in managing pediatric asthma cases. Telemedicine, which involves the remote diagnosis and treatment of patients using telecommunications technology, has emerged as a promising tool in healthcare delivery. Asthma is a common chronic respiratory condition in children, characterized by recurrent episodes of wheezing, breathlessness, chest tightness, and coughing. Managing pediatric asthma requires ongoing monitoring, timely intervention, and patient education to achieve optimal control and prevent exacerbations. Traditional asthma management typically involves in-person visits to healthcare facilities for assessments, monitoring, and consultations with healthcare providers. However, this approach can be burdensome for pediatric patients and their families, leading to missed appointments, delays in treatment, and suboptimal disease control. Telemedicine offers a convenient and accessible alternative by enabling virtual consultations, remote monitoring of symptoms, and timely interventions through digital platforms. By evaluating the effectiveness of telemedicine in managing pediatric asthma cases, this project seeks to address several key research questions. These questions may include assessing the feasibility and acceptability of telemedicine among pediatric asthma patients and their caregivers, evaluating the impact of telemedicine on asthma control and management outcomes, exploring the cost-effectiveness of telemedicine compared to traditional care models, and identifying potential barriers and facilitators to implementing telemedicine in pediatric asthma care. The research overview will involve a comprehensive review of existing literature on telemedicine in pediatric asthma management, highlighting the current state of knowledge, gaps in research, and areas for further investigation. The project will utilize a mixed-methods research design, incorporating both quantitative and qualitative data collection methods to provide a holistic understanding of the topic. Data collection may involve surveys, interviews, remote monitoring data, and clinical outcomes assessment to capture a wide range of perspectives and insights. The findings of this research are expected to contribute valuable insights to the field of pediatric asthma management and telemedicine. By demonstrating the effectiveness of telemedicine in managing pediatric asthma cases, this project may inform clinical practice guidelines, healthcare policies, and future research directions in the use of telemedicine for chronic disease management in children. Ultimately, the project aims to improve access to care, enhance patient outcomes, and promote the efficient delivery of healthcare services for pediatric asthma patients through innovative telemedicine solutions.
