About

The Cambridge Breathlessness Intervention Service (or CBIS) was set up in 2003 in Cambridge, England by Dr Sara Booth to provide an evidence-based complex intervention for breathlessness. It is the only ongoing commissioned service focused on breathlessness management in the UK.This pioneering Service has been embedded in research since its inception, including a decade-long evaluation using the Medical Research Council Framework for complex interventions.In 2012, the Service developed the Breathing, Thinking, Functioning (BTF) model, as an educational tool to support generalist breathlessness education. The team delivers regular teaching on breathlessness management, underpinned by the BTF model, throughout the UK and internationally.
