Following GM-wide consultation and approval by chief finance officers and directors of commissioning, an updated GMMMG asthma guideline is now available on the Clinical Guidance and Pathways page.
The guideline has been updated in response to a request from GMHSCP to produce an updated asthma management plan to support the move to lower carbon inhalers. This includes consciously reducing the propellants contained in metered-dose inhalers which is a significant contributor to enabling the Greater Manchester Combined Authority’s and Greater Manchester Joint Commissioning Board’s commitment to sustainability.
An updated inhaler guide to support the pathway is in production, and will be available in due course.
