THE RESEARCHERS NOW HAVE ALL THE VOLUNTEERS THEY NEED FOR THIS STUDY - THANK YOU.

People with inflammatory conditions treated with immune suppressing medicines are recommended to have regular blood tests to monitor for potential side-effects. Researchers at the University of Nottingham are undertaking work which aims to create a personalised, long-term monitoring plan that may result in changes to how often someone is recommended to have these blood tests. As part of this work, they are looking for people with inflammatory conditions and taking immune-suppressing medicines to take part in a questionnaire and interview study, which aims to understand:

a) How often people attend these blood tests as currently recommended (questionnaire).

b) People’s views and experience of the current blood tests, and potential changes to this in the future (interview).

An information sheet outlining the full details of this study can be viewed here:

Please take the time to read this before deciding whether to take part.

If you would like to take part, please fill out the questionnaire at:

Your answers to these questions will also be used to choose a wide range of people to talk to in the interviews.
