Asthma routinization, family asthma management, caregiver depressive symptoms, and medication adherence in Head Start preschool children.

Introduction: Medication adherence is suboptimal in childhood asthma. Children rely on caregivers to manage medication administration. It is important to detect families who are at risk for poor adherence or to identify potential areas that can assist families with better adherence to asthma medications in order to improve asthma outcomes.

"Where You Feel Like a Family Instead of Co-workers": a Mixed Methods Study on Care Teams and Burnout.

Background: Physicians and nurses face high levels of burnout. The role of care teams may be protective against burnout and provide a potential target for future interventions.

Objective: To explore levels of burnout among physicians and nurses and differences in burnout between physicians and nurses, to understand physician and nurse perspectives of their healthcare teams, and to explore the association of the role of care teams and burnout.

Family management of asthma in Head Start preschool children.

Background: Urban minority preschool children are disproportionately affected by asthma with increased asthma morbidity and mortality. It is important to understand how families manage asthma in preschool children to improve asthma control.

Objective: To evaluate family asthma management and asthma outcomes among a low-income urban minority population of Head Start preschool children.

"It is kind of like a responsibility thing": transitional challenges in asthma medication adherence among adolescents and young adults.

Objective: Nonadherence to asthma medications is prevalent among adolescents and young adults (AYAs) with asthma, leading to worsened control of asthma symptoms and more frequent exacerbations. AYAs have unique developmental transitional challenges that may alter medication adherence. We aimed to use a socio-ecological framework to explore the effect of transitional challenges from adolescence to young adulthood on asthma controller medication adherence and to identify possible strategies to promote medication adherence.
