Observational Study Using the CoVa Monitoring System 3
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Asthma is a complex and chronic inflammatory disorder which is associated with reversible airway obstruction and bronchial hyperresponsiveness. It is one of the most prevalent chronic diseases in children and prevalence further increases worldwide. Typical symptoms of asthma are breathlessness, cough, wheezing and chest tightness. These symptoms are particularly prevalent at night-time. Understanding and tracking these symptoms can lead to better management of asthma.
Auscultation using a stethoscope is standard clinical practice, however there is currently no available solution to detect respiratory sounds throughout the day and night.
The aim of this study is to investigate the feasibility of detecting respiratory sounds in healthy children with the CoVa patch.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Ability to detect simulated respiratory sounds including coughing and wheezing or identify subjects which have asthma related respiratory issues [2 Weeks]
Subjects will be asked to simulate coughing and wheezing sounds. This data will be analyzed by using a phonocardiogram (microphone) sensor.
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Ability to detect simulated respiratory sounds including wheeze and cough during movement such a simulated situation of moving in bed. [2 Weeks]
Subjects will be asked to simulate coughing and wheezing sounds. This data will be analyzed by using a phonocardiogram (microphone) sensor while the subject is moving in the bed.
