An integrated approach to improving patient-centred care in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease [ 2017 - ]

Research Grant

Researchers: Dr Claudia Dobler (Principal investigator)

Brief description My research project aims to improve patient-centred care in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), also known as emphysema, by developing, testing and implementing a decision aid for shared decision making. The decision aid will be for use during the patient-health provider encounter and will facilitate tailoring of COPD treatment to patient-defined health priorities and needs, thus improving adherence and outcomes.
