Current projects
- Undifferentiated breathlessness presenting in primary care
AimTech diagnostic technology platform for acute breathlessness in ambulatory care - Earlier diagnosis of lung disease in potential at risk populations
Uncovering earlier diagnostic modalities for airways and interstitial lung disease. - Virtual monitoring and prediction of chronic respiratory disease exacerbation
Assessing HealthTech's potential to predict clinical worsening prior to symptoms - Technology support for severe respiratory disease in ambulatory settings
Developing innovate home care pathways.
Impact:
Our research in respiratory HealthTech aims to:
- Reduce hospital admissions for respiratory conditions
- Improve quality of life for patients with chronic respiratory diseases
- Enhance the efficiency of community-based respiratory care
Collaborations:
We work closely with [e.g., NHS trusts, industry partners, patient groups]
