AbstractBackground People with multimorbidity (>2 long-term conditions) have poorer outcomes in areas of high socioeconomic deprivation (SED). High-quality person-centred care (PCC) is important in those with multimorbidity, but socially vulnerable populations have not, to our knowledge, informed current PCC models.

AbstractThere is uncertainty about how best to diagnose asthma, especially in primary care where mis-diagnosis is common. To address this, we developed a clinical decision support system (CDSS) for asthma diagnosis in children and young people (aged 5-25 years). This study explored the feasibility and acceptability of the CDSS in UK primary care. We recruited general practices from England and Scotland. The CDSS was available for use during routine consultations for six months.
