Quadrupling inhaled glucocorticoid dose to abort asthma exacerbations (2018)
Journal Article
Copyright © 2018 Massachusetts Medical Society. BACKGROUND Asthma exacerbations are frightening for patients and are occasionally fatal. We tested the concept that a plan for patients to manage their asthma (self-management plan), which included a te...

A randomised pragmatic trial of corticosteroid optimization in severe asthma using a composite biomarker algorithm to adjust corticosteroid dose versus standard care: study protocol for a randomised trial (2018)
Journal Article
Background: Patients with difficult-to-control asthma consume 50–60% of healthcare costs attributed to asthma and cost approximately five-times more than patients with mild stable disease. Recent evidence demonstrates that not all patients with asthm...
