Teva Ireland has launched a free to access online hub of educational materials and resources, www.LetsTalkRespiratory.ie.

The hub provides the latest news and updates supporting medical education in asthma, cystic fibrosis (CF), and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) for healthcare professionals (HCPs).

The aim of www.LetsTalkRespiratory.ie is to support HCPs to make a difference to the lives of those living with asthma, CF, and COPD, which affect more than 881,300 people in Ireland. All content is available at www.LetsTalkRespiratory.ie.

HCPs can access resources to use with patients to help manage their conditions such as asthma and COPD patient booklets and consultation guides, self-management plans and peak flow diaries.

The online hub also contains articles written by experts in the field, with titles such as ‘Managing COPD in Dementia’, ‘Impact of Obesity on Respiratory Diseases’ and ‘Biologic Use in Pregnancy’ providing great insight into managing patients with comorbidities or complications.

Dr Brian Kent, Consultant Respiratory and Sleep Physician at St James’s Hospital, Dublin, said: “LetsTalkRespiratory.ie is an incredibly valuable resource for healthcare professionals working in respiratory. With easily digestible content, healthcare professional-led videos and one-minute to read whitepapers, this should be a go-to resource for anyone working in this field.”

“In addition to our significant respiratory manufacturing and R&D hub in Waterford, Teva is committed to providing best-in-class education and support to the healthcare community that we serve,” added Clodagh Kevans, Director of Specialty Medicines, Teva Ireland.
