| Title: | Outcomes of a home-based environmental remediation for urban children with
asthma | National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences |
|---|
| Description: | This study examined the effectiveness of a home-based intervention for reducing environmental asthma triggers, and determined that children experienced fewer asthma-related hospitalizations, emergency room visits, sick visits, and asthma symptoms with the intervention. Study findings suggested that low-cost in-home education and environmental remediation may improve outcomes for asthmatic children, and that lay educators can deliver effective asthma-specific education that results in improved asthma control. |
