Lessons learnt from a primary care asthma improvement project

Acknowledgements Our thanks to all practice and primary care staff in North Staffordshire, Stoke-on-Trent and Grampian health areas who have given their valuable time to this project, as well as to all team members of Optimal Patient Care who have applied their expertise in helping interrogate the practice IT systems and supply the reports for the individual practices. We thank various colleagues in secondary care and particularly the support we have had from the British Lung Foundation. Finally we thank the generosity of the DoH in England and the Scottish Government for funding the projects.Peer reviewedPublisher PD
