Full description:
Join our friendly workshop of 10-12 people in central Manchester this September to share your views on a new UV light device designed to prevent catheter-related infections and reduce changes.
We want to hear from people with personal or family experience of needing catheters or central lines in hospital or at home.
We’ll explore how the tool fits into people’s needs and care and how to design a trial to test how well it achieves this in real life.

The NIHR HealthTech Research Centre in Emergency and Acute Care is working to make emergency care faster, more accurate, and more effective by developing new health technologies.
These tools help doctors make better decisions, diagnose problems sooner, and choose the best treatments so patients get the right care, in the right place, at the right time.
We do this by bringing together public contributors, researchers and companies.
