New FeNO in
Asthma free elearning modules are now live
Health Education England elearning for
healthcare worked in partnership with NHS England and NHS Improvement, Accelerated Access Collaborative,
WAHSN, AHSN Network, and the Office for Life Sciences to develop two new free
of charge elearning modules, focused on FeNO in Asthma. Although
developed for primary care professionals, other healthcare professionals may
find the modules useful.
About the elearning modules
Module one aims to improve the learner’s understanding of FeNO, how the test
is performed and appropriate language to use when talking
about FeNO with patients.
Module two focuses on the interpretation of FeNO, providing an enhanced description of
what FeNO is and how it can be used in the diagnosis of asthma, with case
examples, covering a spectrum of clinical scenarios.
How to access
The modules are accessible via the elearning for healthcare website. For more information and to register for a free ELFH account:
