Call for Respondents - Help Shape the Future of Lung Technology – Looking for patients/carers and health care professionals
The HERON project aims to identify the most pressing unmet needs in respiratory health and explore how new or improved technology could better support patients, carers, at-risk groups, and health professionals.
Our team has launched a survey to find out more about respiratory health needs and ideas related to technology for chronic lung conditions. The survey takes approximately 15 min to complete, doesn’t require any tech skills, and can be anonymous.
We are interested in hearing from people who:
• Are living with a chronic lung condition
• Believe they might be living with a chronic lung condition based on symptoms or tests
• Think they may be at high risk for developing a chronic lung condition (e.g. due to smoking, family history, exposure at work or poor housing)
• Are caring for someone who is living with a chronic lung condition
• Are a healthcare professional caring for adults and children living with chronic lung disease. The survey is open to professionals working across all care settings, all disciplines, and all stages of patient journey.
Patients, carers, and individuals at risk can complete the survey here:
