NCT ID NCT06447974
First seen Aug 13, 2026 · Last updated Aug 14, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This trial tests whether a dedicated NHS environmental health clinic can help children with chronic respiratory conditions by reducing their exposure to air pollutants. Children aged 4-17 will wear personal monitors and have their homes assessed, then receive personalized reports with advice on reducing exposure. After following the advice, monitoring is repeated to see if exposure and health outcomes improve.
