About Strados Labs

Improving quality of life for patients with chronic respiratory diseases

 

Chronic respiratory diseases such as COPD and Asthma affect more than 300 million people and are among the top causes of death worldwideĀ¹. As clinicians and researchers look for new approaches to respiratory disease surveillance and management, Strados Labs developed the RESPĀ Biosensor to allow for improved understanding of patient respiratory health while patients are at home. The RESP Biosensor continuously captures lung sounds including cough, wheeze and cracklesĀ  and shortness of breath* in relation to drugs, devices, activity, and more, leading to a stronger understanding of treatment response and earlier insight into exacerbations to prevent unnecessary hospitalizations.

TheĀ RESPĀ Biosensor is connected to our proprietary cloud software platform designed to collect and process lung sound data with over 100,000 validated lung sound events and 10 million breaths captured.Ā

Who We Help

Pharmaceutical Sponsors & CROs

TheĀ RESPĀ Biosensor offers clinical trialists a way to objectively measure symptoms associated with treatment response for indications such as chronic cough, IPF, and Asthma. Our patient-friendly wearable is designed to collect 24-hour cough, wheeze and crackles in daily life, making it an ideal fit for decentralized clinical trials. The RESPĀ Biosensor has been used in clinical trials across 3 continents and 7 languages.Ā Learn More

Healthcare Systems: Inpatient

Our technology offers clinical teams an enhanced approach to monitoring at-risk patients in inpatient settings such as hospitals and skilled nursing facilities. By continuously monitoring cough and adventitious lung sounds (wheeze, crackles, rhonchi), care teams can better predict exacerbations and intervene earlier, strengthening outcomes while improving caregiver efficiency.

Healthcare Systems: Outpatient and Remote Patient Monitoring

Effectively monitoring respiratory patients at home is a challenge for clinicians, with 30-day readmissions for COPD often exceeding 20%Ā². The RESP Biosensor allows care teams to effectively monitor high-risk COPD and Asthma patients, post-acute discharge or after visiting a clinic, offering a better way to assess the care plan and reduce unnecessary hospitalizations.

Our Story

Our team came together at a health hackathon hosted by Independence Blue Cross and Thomas Jefferson University. Strados Labs founder, Nick Delmonico, is a patient who has spent time in the ER and the ICU due to asthma and respiratory illness like RSV. He understands the complexity of properly communicating symptoms and pulmonary status remotely. He wanted to build a better way to get this information into the hands of clinicians to avoid adverse respiratory events.

Since 2016, Strados Labs has successfully transformed the RESPā„¢ Biosensor from an idea to reality with the help of our dedicated team and partners.
