Telemedical asthma education and healthcare outcomes for school-age children: A systematic review

ConclusionsResults of real-time telemedically delivered asthma education to improve QOL, enhance symptom management ability, and reduce symptom burden were positive or non-significant. No study indicated negative effects due to telemedicine. Limited results indicate that patient education can, under certain circumstances, positively influence asthma burden. Further validation of intervention methods and tools as well as outcome measurement consistency is recommended.
