Are you the parent/carer of a child who has been cared for in #PedsICU?* We are looking for support on the Paediatric Intensive Care Audit Network (@PICANetAudit) Steering Group.

So, so pleased to see this paper published yesterday!! Well done to the team for their incredibly hardwork over the last few years, and it was truly a pleasure to have been part of it 😀
Patients with a COPD flare and blood eosinophils of >300 cells/µl in the prior year received mepolizumab or placebo for 48 weeks, plus exacerbation treatment. The median time to hospitalization or death due to any cause was similar in both groups. https://t.co/N9Vmlv54Rf
Extremely glad to have this out in the world now, and very proud of all the work that went into it.
Look forward to discussing it at ATS!
