You are supposed to use a spacer. The inhaler alone is not good. Not to mention there are some inhalers that already track the number of uses. This is pointless.

Not enough info …sensor tells you what your trigger was…? How? Blood prick analysis? Heartrate? Allergen analysis? Doctors are now instructed to ration patients to one Ventolin a month, two if you argue at length. There is no science to back up patients self diagnosed need for more, doctors differ on what is sufficient, how to measure severity and are often punitive/ biased against smokers. Many patients become resistant to their Ventolyn due to misuse, long term use.. tracking usage doesnt tell you whether patient needed to use more or less puffs for each event or just misused due to poor technique….severe attacks are not managed by Ventolin. Steroids,adrenalin, intravenous meds, full mask vaporised meds- we use all in winter for son.

Being an allergist I was interested to see what this was about… But no! It gives some information about patient adherence to the treatment but as with many products/service it is trying to force a subscription down patients throat without providing real long term value! And the product itself is rendered useless after 12 months due to the non-removable battery!
To me it is just a gimmick the way they chose to make it and charge for it! Sorry…

So it counts how many times you use an inhaler a day and displays it on an app?
