EVITA Trial

The EVITA Trial is a multi-million pound trial to find the best treatment for severe asthma in children. Three medicines used to treat children who have severe asthma attacks will be compared in a national trial. Asthma is the most common long-term condition among children and young people. EVITA will shed light on which of the three treatments: aminophylline, magnesium sulfate or salbutamol, is most effective. This will help to inform clinical guidelines in the future.

 

The EVITA trial has been awarded over £2.3 million from the National Institute for Health and Care Research (NIHR). Southampton’s Professor Graham Roberts and Dr Katrina Cathie will lead the trial, together with Professor Damian Roland in Leicester.

In September, PERUKI successfully refreshed the list of research priorities for PEM across the UK and Ireland, ensuring they reflected the most pressing issues faced by patients, carers, and healthcare professionals today .In 2015, PERUKI published its first list of PEM research priorities, informed solely by healthcare professionals. Over the last nine years, this list guided PERUKI’s research agenda with many ofthese priorities now addressed. Recognising the importance of patient and carer input, the recen trefresh actively involved these stakeholder groups alongside healthcare professionals. Using the James Lind Alliance (JLA) methodology, over 650 research questions were collected from stakeholders across the UK and Ireland. After thematic merging and literature reviews, the questions were narrowed down through two surveys and a final consensus workshop. For the first time, patients, carers, and healthcare professionals collaborated equally to rank the top10 research priorities shown below. This comprehensive process, which spanned ten months, was guided by independent JLAfacilitators and included contributions from a young person advisory group. PERUKI began work translating these priority areas into detailed PICO (Population, Intervention,Comparison, Outcome) research questions at thePERUKI conference in September to guide futurestudies. Stay tuned for further updates as we movetoward addressing these key areas to improveemergency care for children and young people.
