#respisbest #ATS2025 #pulmrehab YinRV by Tania 😊 🌟 CPG 2023 🌟 CWR cycle test validation for clinical trial ✅️ 🌟 tele-rehab ✅️ 🌟 rehab in Long Covid

With huge thanks to our expert panel of speakers @PR_Assembly for the symposium session A87:  Virtual Pulmonary Rehabilitation: A Pro/con debate. Key message: Virtual PR is an option for selected patients but it needs to be adequately prescribed and supervised. 💻 💪

#respisbest @ATS_Assemblies @PR_Assembly 🌟 another excellent #ATS2025 debut - @HSathanapally 🌟 interesting data after a first #breathlessness code in primary care 🌟 more hospitalisations in people of Black or South Asian ethnicity vs White yet less explanatory diagnoses

Successful efforts to reduce health inequalities will require action to improve ethnicity data. An approach to ethnicity that more accurately considers social and behavioural determinants of health is needed, write @amibanerjee1 and colleagues bmj.com/content/389/bm…
