The aim of this group-randomized trial was to test the effectiveness of a new comprehensive program, which the investigators called CALMA -plus, in increasing controller medication use and reducing asthma symptoms. CALMA-plus involved the CALMA home-based family intervention, plus educational training of physicians and nurses, as well as screening for asthma in clinics serving Medicaid island Puerto Rican children with asthma. Because the provider training was expected to have an impact on the entire clinical setting where trained providers work, as well as the patients using that setting, the investigators randomized clinic groups rather than individual patients. The investigators compared the CALMA-Plus intervention to a CALMA-only group, which the investigators expected to obtain the same benefits as the investigators have previously documented.
