Research
The high prevalence of asthma and allergies highlights the urgent need for a better understanding of prevention strategies to reduce the burden and improve management. Our research focuses on early-life and digital intervention strategies across various projects:
- PreventADALL – Prevention of Allergy and Atopic Dermatitis in Children: This Nordic interventional birth cohort study aims to determine if early interventions with skin emollients and food introduction by taste in infancy can prevent atopic dermatitis and allergy in children.
- ADVERT – Asthma Diagnosis Determined by Lung Function and Clinical Decision Support System: This collaboration seeks to reduce asthma misdiagnosis in primary care using a home spirometry system.
- Automated Prevention of Asthma Using Artificial Intelligence (AI): The primary goal is to predict diagnoses and prevent asthma exacerbations with an AI-assisted home spirometry system. The core hypothesis is that by leveraging comprehensive datasets, including register data, we can create personalised asthma care models. These models, enhanced by AI, aim to revolutionize the accuracy of asthma diagnoses and the effectiveness of treatments, ultimately making asthma care more cost-effective. The expected improvements in asthma care will be rigorously tested through randomized controlled trials.
- APPETITE – App-Based Medical Device for Education and Training of Inhalation Technique with Home Spirometry System: The main objective is to assess the impact of an app-based education and training device on inhalation technique in patients treated for asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
