PrimaryBreathe research to help people suffering with chronic breathlessness across the UK
A new research programme called PrimaryBreathe will launch this September, with a mission to develop and evaluate breathlessness support that could be made available to everyone who needs it across the UK.
The ultimate aim is that if the new intervention is found to be effective, that it will become available to anyone in the UK who has chronic breathlessness, whatever their underlying condition or disease stage, and wherever they live.
The research will be funded by the National Institute for Health and Care Research (NIHR) and jointly led by Dr Anna Spathis, Assistant Professor and Honorary Consultant in Palliative Medicine, and Jonathan Mant, Professor of Primary Care Research, both at the University of Cambridge’s Primary Care Unit.
