Hi everybody,
Please accept my apology for the late submission.
I would like to introduce you to the eHealth project for COPD patients called “BreathSuite”
Please see the details in my video clip.
For additional details, please visit: https://www.breathesuite.com/for-copd
Great idea. The idea of BreathSuite” can be applied on other medication to track the patient’s compliance, for example, to monitor the compliance of taking anti-tuberculosis drugs, antiretroviral therapy (for HIV).
Apart from the compliance, another major problem in COPD treatment is most of medication need patient’s cooperation. The inhaled medication in MDI form needs patient to synchronize their breath after pressing the MDI delivering device. This issue will help physicians to address the problems if their symptoms are not improved.
Thank you.
Thanks for the presentation. You covered all the aspects of eHealth project. The BreathSuite project is a good idea and would be beneficial to both patients and physicians.
Thank you for sharing a very interesting eHealth project. This eHealth project gives value to COPD/Asthma patients to have a good quality of life. With good compliance, patients can decrease the chance of exacerbation, and also it can support the physician to make a good decision for treatment management. This is quite interesting on how the sensor works to detect the compliance of inhaler users. This project may develop with other equipments, such as Turbuhaler. I believe that if the hospital is going to implement this application, the benefit would weighed-out more for BreathSuite, instead of having the patient enroll for pulmonary complications. The patient could saved costs for additional treatment and hospitalization.
