A randomised clinical trial of feedback on inhaler adherence and technique in patients with severe uncontrolled asthma
I Sulaiman, G Greene, E MacHale… - European …, 2018 - Eur Respiratory Soc
In severe asthma, poor control could reflect issues of medication adherence or inhaler
technique, or that the condition is refractory. This study aimed to determine if an intervention …
