Asthma Outcomes Workshop |
Description of Collaborative Activity: |
The NHLBI participated in a workshop, attended by federal agency representatives and asthma clinical researchers, to establish standard definitions and data collection methodologies for validated outcome measures in asthma clinical research. Standard definitions and methods would facilitate comparisons across asthma research studies and clinical trials. A secondary objective of the workshop was to identify promising outcome measures for asthma clinical research and discuss the status of their development and validation. |
