Shared decision making and time to exacerbation in children with asthma.
This study examined the use of shared decision making (SDM) to delay exacerbation in children with asthma. A prospective cohort of children at five primary care practices in Charlotte, North Carolina that serve vulnerable population was studied between 2011 and 2013. The cohort included 746 children, with 60.5% male and 54.2% African American with a mean age of 8.6 years. The final analysis included 100 matched pairs of children for use of SDM and normal care. There was a marginally significant difference in the time of exacerbation between the two groups.
