Breathlessness Support Services in the UK and Republic of Ireland: a survey
This national survey is the first to describe the way BSS are delivered in the UK and RI. Few services reported patient demographic data, limiting our assessment of equity of access. This study supports the need for more BSS across the UK and RI and highlights the need for better recording of demographic data, including ethnicity of service users.
