title: Hypertonic saline for bronchiectasis.
abstract: Despite intervention, some patients with bronchiectasis struggle to clear secretions. An advanced practitioner in respiratory medicine at Salford Royal Foundation Trust identified nebulised hypertonic saline (HTS) as a treatment that could potentially improve service provision. She developed and evaluated a safe drug challenge and monitoring service for nebulised HTS.
