Most patients with asthma do not take all of their prescribed medication, but new research shows that speech recognition (SR) adherence programs could improve this. In the 24-month Breathe Well study, researchers tested an SR intervention to improve adherence to asthma controller medication. The study included 1,187 children, aged 3 to 12 years, with a persistent asthma diagnosis and prescription for an inhaled corticosteroid. Patients were randomized to either the computerized SR intervention or usual care. The intervention involved SR telephone calls made to parents when a refill for the asthma medication was due or overdue. The calls were automatically tailored with medical and demographic information from the patient's electronic health record and from parents' answers to questions regarding recent refills, a need for assistance in refilling, learning about asthma control, or speaking with an asthma nurse or pharmacist. Results showed that inhaled corticosteroid adherence was about 25% higher in the intervention group compared with the usual care group. Asthma-related urgent-care events did not differ between the two groups, but the researchers suggest the intervention may have a greater impact in a population with less-controlled asthma.
