Shining a spotlight on respiratory health

Respiratory disease is a leading cause of death in the UK, contributing to over 700,000 hospital admissions annually.

Primary care is responsible for the identification, assessment, and long-term management of asthma, COPD, and other chronic conditions - and respiratory symptoms are among the top reasons for general practice consultations, with millions of annual contacts regarding coughs, wheezing, and breathlessness.

Since its launch in 2019, Respiratory Professional Care has established itself as the leading event for advancing the prevention, early diagnosis, and treatment of the most prevalent respiratory diseases in the UK.

Co-located with Best Practice Birmingham, the Respiratory Professional Care exhibition and conference delivers specialist depth in respiratory health.

Whether you're a healthcare leader, respiratory health clinician, or respiratory healthcare supplier, it's your opportunity to witness the latest advancements in respiratory care, meet with colleagues and peers, and get the latest CPD updates on the most prevalent clinical areas, delivered by an expansive faculty of expert speakers.
