Problem
Traditional methods of monitoring cough frequency and patterns often rely on patient self-reporting or short-term clinical observations, which can be subjective, inconsistent, and fail to capture the full scope of a patient's condition over extended periods. Existing technologies may also be obtrusive, requiring significant patient interaction or specialized equipment, leading to compliance issues and limited real-world applicability.
Solution
Hyfe provides an AI-powered cough monitoring solution that delivers continuous, clinically validated data through a wearable device and companion app. The system utilizes on-device AI models to detect and quantify cough events without recording audio, ensuring patient privacy. The unobtrusive wearable allows for long-term, real-world data collection, providing precise insights into respiratory and cardiovascular health. Data is accessible through an intuitive dashboard, enabling healthcare providers and researchers to track cough patterns, assess treatment effectiveness, and gain a more comprehensive understanding of respiratory conditions.
Target Audience
The primary target audience includes pharmaceutical companies, academic researchers, and healthcare providers in virtual care settings seeking reliable, continuous cough monitoring for clinical trials, research studies, and remote patient management.
