Improper inhaler technique results in reduced health outcomes and 25% more emergency room visits for asthma and COPD patients. This increases the economic burden associated with these conditions on healthcare systems, payers and individuals.

BreatheSuite MDI

An inhaler add-on and app that collects information and provides feedback on how you use our inhaler by:

measuring how long you shake your inhaler;

sensing if you hold your inhaler correctly;

sensing how long you inhale;

sensing if you push down on your inhaler at the right time; and

recording the date and time of inhaler use.

Data is sent to the app on your phone. The app displays information on inhaler adherence and technique and provides reminders & tips on how to use your inhaler correctly.

BreatheSuite inspires respiratory patients to keep their respiratory health front of mind.

Collect information on how and when you use your inhaler.

For Patients

The BreatheSuite Device attaches to existing MDI medication to provide real-time inhaler adherence and technique feedback on your smartphone. Just attach the BreatheSuite device to your inhaler, download the BreatheSuite App, and continue to use your inhaler as prescribed.

For Healthcare Professionals

The BreatheSuite App generates reports that can be shared with healthcare professionals. Reports include feedback on patients' inhaler technique, adherence and rescue inhaler use to help identify condition exacerbation. This information will help healthcare professionals create personalized healthcare plans and identify patients that are in need of additional help.
