Pulmonary Screener v2

Mobile Technology Lab

About this app

Pulmonary Screener v2 is a mobile app that is designed for use by health workers or clinicals to help screen for common pulmonary diseases (Asthma, COPD, Interstitial Lung Disease, Allergic Rhinitis, and Respiratory Infection). This mobile app provides a database and patient registration support and is designed to work with other companion mobile apps that enable specific measurements, such as a digital stethoscope, questionnaire, peak flow meter and thermal camera.
Pulmonary Screener is NOT a substitute for a doctor and it is NOT a diagnostic test. Pullmonary screener can be used to conduct clinical research studies and can also be used as a SCREENING tool to help identify each patient's risk of having a specific pulmonary disease. The clinican or doctor then uses this information to refer the patient to a laboratory for a proper diagnosis.
