Study Summary
The goal of the ALOHA trial is to investigate the efficacy of improved diet quality following a DASH behavioral intervention that has shown promising results in adults with uncontrolled asthma. DASH stands for Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension. This healthy diet is known to help people with high blood pressure manage their health. But physicians do not know if the DASH diet can also benefit patients with uncontrolled asthma. Researchers in the ALOHA study are trying to find out the answer to this important question. Researchers at UIC are studying how 2 asthma care programs compare in terms of helping adults with uncontrolled asthma to improve their quality of life. Researchers also want to learn what might explain the differences in patient outcomes that they may see between the 2 programs. The primary outcome will be asthma-specific quality of life. If the DASH behavioral intervention is found to benefit people with uncontrolled asthma, it would provide a practical, safe, and acceptable public-health intervention in the form of dietary modification to reduce the burden of asthma.
Primary Outcome
The 15-item Juniper Mini Asthma-Specific Quality of Life Questionnaire (AQLQ) has been shown to have excellent reliability and responsiveness to change in asthma control. It consists of 5 items on symptoms, 4 items on activity limitations, 3 items on emotional function, and 3 items concerning environmental stimuli. Each item is rated on a scale from 1=maximum impairment to 7=no impairment over the last 2 weeks. The overall AQLQ score is an average of the item scores equally weighted. The primary
