Developing and Evaluating an Indoor Air Pollution Intervention Among Cardiovascular Patients: the AIRWISE Study

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

This pilot study (n=20) is a prospective evaluation of the implementation of an indoor air pollution intervention among adults 55 years of age or older. The intervention, called Air Improvement and Real-time Monitoring for Wellness through Interactive Strategies and Education (AIRWISE), is focused on improving indoor air quality through air filtration, education, and behavioral recommendations. All participants will receive the AIRWISE intervention with the objective of evaluating acceptance and use of the individual intervention components. This implementation study will inform the submission of a larger NIH proposal for a randomized trial. The central study hypothesis is that an intervention program with educational strategies and visual behavioral cues will increase knowledge and awareness of air pollution exposures among the participants and lead to improved intervention compliance.
