A wide variety of digital technologies have been developed to help monitor and support treatment adherence for children and adolescents with asthma. However, existing reviews need to be updated and expanded to provide an overview of the current state of research around these technologies and how they are being integrated into existing healthcare services and care pathways.</jats:p></jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Objective</jats:title><jats:p>The purpose of this scoping review is to provide an overview of the current research landscape and knowledge gaps regarding the use of digital technologies to support the care of children and adolescents with asthma.</jats:p></jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods</jats:title><jats:p>The review was structured according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses extension for Scoping Reviews (PRISMA-ScR) and Population, Intervention, Comparator, Outcome, and Study (PICOS) frameworks. Five databases (PubMed, the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL), Web of Science, EMBASE, and PsycINFO) were systematically searched for studies published in English from 2014 on. One reviewer screened references, selected studies for inclusion based on the eligibility criteria, and extracted the data, which were synthesised in a descriptive analysis.</jats:p></jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results</jats:title><jats:p>A wide variety in study characteristics - including the number and age of participants, study duration, and type of digital intervention - was identified. There was mixed evidence for the effectiveness of the interventions; 6 of the 9 studies
