Aplicação Móvel Inteligente para Suporte Individualizado e Monitorização da Função e Sons Respiratórios de Doentes Obstrutivos Crónicos

Description
The AIRDOC project aims to develop, integrate and validate a set of information and communication technologies (ICT) of mobile health (mHealth) for remote monitoring and individualized support (coaching) of patients with chronic obstructive respiratory diseases (CORD), using only the smartphone and their embedded sensors. Current tools for CORD self-managing are complex, unattractive, not individualized and require laborious analysis by health professionals, discouraging their use in healthcare. There is an opportunity for a new market of cost-effective and easy-to-disseminate advanced technological solutions directed to patients and attractive to different stakeholders. The strategy of AIRDOC is to develop and integrate self-monitoring and self-managing tools, making use of the smartphones presence in everyday life.
