Most people with significant respiratory illness experience daily breathlessness.
Management of breathlessness is described in the webinar above using the 'Breathing, Thinking, Functioning' model, an approach that helps make sense of persisting breathlessness and provides a structure for personalised symptom management.
After an update on latest evidence for drug and non-drug treatments of breathlessness, this session with Dr Anna Spathis will focus on practical management tips for use in clinical practice.
