Intervention materials | Description |
|---|---|
For clinicians | |
Online training | An online training module on what FeNO is and how to use the FeNO algorithm during asthma reviews, which includes patient scenarios, video consultations and champions’ testimonies, to increase clinicians’ confidence and belief in using FeNO to provide more personalised asthma management. |
FeNO algorithm | An online algorithm that offers personalised recommendations on asthma management based on ACT score, FeNO test result, number of asthma exacerbations in the last 12 months, and other information about the patient’s asthma and general health to support clinicians to use a FeNO test result to inform management decisions. Subsequent questions in the algorithm after the 3 initial pieces of information are tailored according to the answers which clinicians give to the questions which are presented to them. |
FeNO test instructions | The instructions are double sided. One side explains to clinicians how to set up the machine and what the various components and screen icons are and the other is a step by step guide for patients on how to actually do the test. |
For patients | |
Information leaflet entitled “Your Asthma Review – How FeNO can help” | A leaflet to inform patients about FeNO, how to do a test and what a FeNO test result means, to increase their belief that they will be able to carry out the FeNO test, and that FeNO supports more personalised asthma management which is beneficial to them. |
