Back in March 2025, we ran an audit which found significant safety concerns in pleural procedures across the UK. We have since developed training standards in efforts to improve patient safety by standardising best practice in line with the 2023 BTS Pleural Disease Guidelines.

The focus of this publication is to provide those working within respiratory services with a suitable standard to support the improvement and expansion of their skills.

A gender-based approach in managing IPF is warranted, and further studies are needed to clarify these differences and their impact on IPF management.
