R34 Asthma Depression
Sponsor: Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai
Summary
Depressive disorders are highly prevalent among older adults with asthma and are associated with poor asthma outcomes. The overall objective of this study is to integrate an asthma self-management support program that the research team previously developed with cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) for adherence and depression for older adults with uncontrolled asthma and a comorbid depressive disorder. The research team will conduct a pilot randomized controlled trial to assess the feasibility and preliminary impact of the intervention on asthma and depression outcomes.

Interventions
SAMBA
SAMBA will be utilized to support participants in establishing personalized goals, assessing symptoms, skills, and self-care activities, and identifying barriers to effective asthma self-management. The data collected through SAMBA will be used to inform and tailor CBT-AD intervention to each participant's needs. The intervention will take place over 10 - 12 remote sessions, with additional telephone follow-up provided as needed.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy-Asthma Depression (CBT-AD)
CBT-AD (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy-Asthma Depression) will be delivered to identify and restructure thoughts related to depression and maladaptive beliefs surrounding disease management. The intervention will take place over 10 - 12 remote sessions, with additional telephone follow-up provided as needed.
Original SAMBA
Participants in the control arm will receive the original SAMBA intervention only for asthma self-management support, without the adaptations for participants with depression and without the CBT-AD component.
