Do you have severe asthma, live in the UK and are interested in a fab new clinical trial for a device to possibly reduce symptoms? Read on!

Hi all,

I sit on the steering committee as an independent member for a wonderful severe asthma clinical trial funded by the National Institute for Health Research in the UK for a new treatment device for patients with allergic asthma that might help to reduce the frequency of asthma attacks.

But we need more patients! I've offered to help drum up support - you can read more about the trial here - asthma-treatment.org.uk/ and it details all the info you need to see if you meet the criteria for the trial.

It's a device rather than another medication, so I think would be really interesting for people who feel that their medications are just not helping sometimes.

There are centres recruiting all over England and to date we have 44 out of the 222 needed so far.

Many thanks

David
