Oliba, together with AstraZeneca, designed the project NeReA – Severe Asthma Regional Network to bring together the main stakeholders of the Lazio Region to define and address the critical issues in the management of adult patients with severe asthma.
An effective care model comprising an integrated multidisciplinary path was proposed for these patients, including a particular focus on the impact on patient quality of life.
A logical, value-based approach was used to identify the unmet needs of adult patients with severe asthma in the Lazio Region, and the main characteristics of the dedicated structures present in the Region were defined according to the “hub and spoke” model.
Oliba organized a virtual European-wide roundtable discussion, in which people with cystic fibrosis were encouraged to share their experiences and insights into life with the disease in the presence of a clinical specialist moderator.
Oliba planned the administrative, logistic, and scientific aspects of the event, and prepared, managed, and supported the technology platform used for the meeting.
In addition, Oliba created an online survey for the participants and analyzed the data collected during the event.
The data and insights from the meeting were utilized to create a research letter for submission to a peer-reviewed journal.
