Full description:
We’re developing research for people with asthma who still feel breathless despite medication, often linked to reduced muscular control of breathing. A new physiotherapy treatment has been created and will be compared with NHS treatment.
We invite you to a 1 hour online focus group to share feedback on the study, help improve recruitment, and identify barriers to participation. Camera and active discussion required.
