Using routinely collected primary care records to identify and investigate severe asthma: a scoping review

Abstract Shielding during the coronavirus pandemic has highlighted the potential of routinely collected primary care records to identify patients with ‘high-risk’ conditions, including severe asthma. We aimed to determine how previous studies have used primary care records to identify and investigat...
