A new online asthma tracking tool developed by researchers at the University of Utah focuses on preventing rather than managing exacerbations and has been shown to reduce emergency-room readmissions for patients who have used it.
The tracker, which has a responsive design that adapts to any size computer screen, including phones, is currently being tested by children, their parents, and their health care providers in the Salt Lake Valley in a study exploring how better monitoring of the disease could improve quality of life.
