ARRISA-UK

Can implementing at-risk asthma registers in primary care reduce hospital admissions?

ARRISA-UK (At-Risk Registers Integrated into primary care to Stop Asthma crises in the UK) randomised trial involved 275 UK primary care practices. The intervention included identifying at-risk patients, staff training, a clinical decision support system alerting practice staff to patients’ at-risk status to facilitate prompt and opportunistic care, and ongoing support.
