WEARCOPD

WearCOPD is designed to improve the care and self-management of patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). We are building a technology platform consisting of a wearable device, which will measure physiological symptoms of COPD, and a mobile app, which will provide guidance for self-management, including what actions to take when an exacerbation occurs... Our research aims to improve the care and self-management of patients with COPD. The WearCOPD platform will help patients know exactly when their symptoms have worsened and initialize a step-by-step action plan to prevent hospitalization... We are always working on new research to ensure that we create a tool that is useful and accessible for people with COPD.
