Get SMART: Teaching Pediatric Residents the 2020 Focused Asthma Updates' Recommendations for Symptom-Based Medication Increases.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

The 2020 Focused Asthma Updates introduced a paradigm shift in the treatment of asthma that includes symptom-based adjustments to outpatient asthma treatment that vary by age and severity. The length and complexity of the updates have made them challenging to adopt.

Methods

We implemented an educational session among pediatric residents to increase their familiarity with, comprehension of, and plans to adopt two evidence-based recommendations introduced in the 2020 Updates for symptom-based therapy. Facilitators led groups of four to six pediatric residents in cased-based discussions during a 30-minute, ambulatory care-based session. One week prior, participants and facilitators received synopses of the 2007 Guidelines for the Diagnosis and Management of Asthma
