Correctly using an inhaler can be surprisingly difficult. It requires a degree of dexterity and a series of potentially complicated movements. The medical consequences of a patient failing to use their inhaler correctly (misuse), are far significant, as it means the disease is not properly managed.
Hephaï is a unique application designed to help patients use inhalers prescribed for asthma and COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease) correctly, using a virtual coach.
Hephaï’s goal is to improve the management of chronic diseases by minimizing the medical risks associated with misuse.
