This study is designed to (1) determine whether an integrated EAM albuterol rescue inhaler can increase proper use (2) determine if the monitoring capabilities of the device (flow rate, warnings) and/or increased proper use from having the device correlate with better outcomes. The investigators will also have patients perform at-home gamified spirometry (Aluna ©) to (3) determine if at-home spirometry can predict albuterol use or change outcomes.
The investigators propose to evaluate whether an integrated electronic adherence monitoring albuterol rescue inhaler can improve proper use in a mostly minority and inner-city population of children treated for asthma at the Children's Hospital of Los Angeles
