Webinars and videos

At the Primary Care Respiratory Society (PCRS), we believe in 'optimal'; respiratory health for all. Our aim is that, together, we can benefit every person with, or at risk of, lung disease.

This webinar aims to provide healthcare professionals with essential insights and practical strategies for optimising medication regimens for patients with asthma on biologic therapy, with a specific focus on reducing the steroid burden. Biologic therapies have revolutionised the management of asthma, but their combination with steroids can pose challenges and risks to patients.

This webinar focuses on using the GINA approach to managing asthma and how this can support delivery of best practice asthma care*. PCRS executive chair, Katherine Hickman, is joined by expert speakers Michael Crooks, Nicola Standring-Brown and Benedict Greenwood to discuss this important topic.  

Ensuring patients follow the correct asthma treatment pathway is vital. People with asthma should have enough knowledge of their asthma to adjust their treatment based on symptoms. Using personalised asthma action plans and annual review processes will support them with this and ensure effective maintenance of their treatment. Part of the Supporting People with Asthma in the 21st Century project, this animation provides a concise guide to maintaining effective asthma treatment.  

Patients with asthma must received the most suitable treatment for them. This not only promotes better asthma control but also enhances quality of life. To achieve this we must educate, address the underlying inflammation, support healthy living, share decision making, document and communicate. Part of the Supporting People with Asthma in the 21st Century project, this animation provides a concise guide to ensuring optimal treatment for asthma patients.

The truth is avoiding 'triggers' can reduce symptoms and taking a blue inhaler, can help to provide short-term relief but they don’t address the underlying problem - inflammation.
