While a wide range of outcomes were measured across studies, overall, the studies (n=19) that met the inclusion criteria demonstrated a slower decline in maintenance inhaler adherence (n=13), decreased reliever use (n=6) and improvements in asthma control (n=3). They did not demonstrate positive outcomes on asthma exacerbations and healthcare utilisation, but this may be due to study sample sizes, eligibility criteria and duration.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Remote monitoring demonstrates improvements in important intermediary asthma outcomes.
