probability of a child\u2019s future asthma attack and provide personalized risk management advice.<br \/>\nFrank Gilliland, MD, MPH, PhD, professor of preventive medicine at the Keck School of Medicine of USC, said the integrative Biomedical Real-Time Health Evaluation (BREATHE) platform he and colleagues from UCLA are developing is a potentially revolutionary approach to managing asthma, one of the most common chronic childhood diseases.<br \/>\n\u201cWe think this is the future for asthma care,\u201d said Gilliland, co-principal investigator of the project. \u201cWe will use real-time, high-volume information about physiology, symptoms, medication use and environmental exposures. This \u2018big data\u2019 will help physicians manage patients better and prevent exacerbations. It is a personalized medicine approach that evaluates potential real-time environmental triggers, genetics and a child\u2019s asthma attack history.\u201d<br \/>\n<figure id=\"attachment_7049\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-7049\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-7049\" src=\"https:\/\/keck.usc.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/68\/2023\/11\/apps-web-300x200-1.jpg\" alt=\"Graphic by Alex Bui\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-7049\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Graphic by Alex Bui<\/figcaption><\/figure><br \/>\nResearchers from both universities will build a platform that will crunch data from children\u2019s wearable devices, smartphones and individual electronic health records as well as real-time reports on weather conditions, air quality, pollen and allergy forecasts, and other \u201casthma triggers.\u201d The algorithm will supply contextual information in a secure, cloud-based system.<br \/>\nThe National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering awarded a $5.25 million grant to co-principal investigators Gilliland and Jose-Luis Ambite, a research assistant professor in the Department of Computer Science at the USC Viterbi School of Engineering. The agency also awarded UCLA a $6 million grant, of which $1.85 million is expected to be subcontracted to USC. The money in both grants will be spread across four years of research and development.<br \/>\nAbout 6.8 million children in the United States have asthma, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The currently incurable respiratory condition cost the United States about $56 billion in medical costs, lost school and work days in 2007.<br \/>\n\u201cAsthma weighs heavily on the nation in terms of public health, medical costs and quality of life,\u201d said Alex Bui, PhD, also a principal investigator in this study and professor of radiological sciences at the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA. \u201cOne of the biggest challenges will be making the smart device user-friendly for young children. Kids like intuitive interfaces with bright colors, simple language, big text and quirky noises. We\u2019re having fun exploring how to build those facets into our design.\u201d<br \/>\nResearchers will test the platform on 8- to 12-year-old children with asthma. The algorithm scientists are developing will analyze data from the landmark USC Children\u2019s Health Study, a litany of contextual data from environmental sensors and a history of previous asthma attacks. When exacerbating conditions arise again, the asthma app may remind a child or caregiver to bring an inhaler or medicine to ward off a future asthma attack.<br \/>\n\u201cWe will use technology to help people maximize their health and reduce the burden of childhood asthma,\u201d said Gilliland, director of USC\u2019s Division of Environmental Health. \u201cPrivacy is critical. The data has to be encrypted and secure so people could be assured their data will be confidential.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n  <\/div>\n\n\n
