| Scientific title | Enhancing self-regulation skills in teenagers with severe asthma through a nurse-led intervention: a randomised controlled trial |
| Study objectives | Asthma is prevalent amongst teenagers and often causes significant morbidity. In a small number with severe asthma, who often have many psycho-social risk factors, there is high health care utilisation reflected particularly in frequent hospital admissions. Such teenagers present a challenge because they often do not respond to conventional medical approaches. A randomised controlled trial of the impact of a small group educational intervention, led by a nurse-educator, designed to promote asthma self-regulatory skills in teenagers will be undertaken. |

| Health condition(s) or problem(s) studied | Asthma |
| Intervention | The group work will be based on a specially developed asthma workbook and will focus on the key skills of asthma prevention and attack management, and social skill training in areas important to asthma management in teenagers. |
| Intervention type | Other |
| Primary outcome measure(s) |
The success of the programme will be judged by its ability to reduce subsequent health care utilisation. If successful, such an approach could have considerable impact on a high risk group and would be easily adaptable for general introduction. |
