IMPlementing IMProved Asthma self-management as RouTine (IMP²ART) in primary care: study protocol for a cluster randomised controlled implementation trial.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Asthma is a common long-term condition and major public health problem. Supported self-management for asthma that includes a written personalised asthma action plan, supported by regular professional review, reduces unscheduled consultations and improves asthma outcomes and quality of life. However, despite unequivocal inter/national guideline recommendations, supported self-management is poorly implemented in practice. The IMPlementing IMProved Asthma self-management as RouTine (IMP²ART) implementation strategy has been developed to address this challenge. The aim of this implementation trial is to determine whether facilitated delivery of the IMP²ART strategy increases the provision of asthma action plans and reduces unscheduled care in the contex
