Respi careers

Chronic respiratory disease shows high occurrence in the US (8%), presenting a trend to increase. It is currently the 3rd leading cause of death.

All available treatments are based on symptoms based medication, where dosage is regulated patient subjective self reports. There is currently no practical available means of estimating symptom severity and adjusting medication, as with diabetes; patients are told to medicate accordingly to how bad they feel.

We are building a respiratory patient management system that is comprised of a smartphone enabled spirometer, an interpretive app that translates results into actionable metrics, detects patient patterns and incentivizes medication compliance and health related actions and a cloud application that allows the overview of the physician in the process and enables metric based medication protocols.

We are currently designing the 4th generation hardware prototype and app, using a patentable measurement method.
