For Cough Monitoring: Why the RESP Biosensor?
Privacy & Security
Incorporates end-to-end encryption and speech obfuscation to preserve patient privacy.
Accelerated Data Turnaround
Cloud-based syncs from paired mobile phone allow for remote data uploads, streamlining data reporting and overread process.
High Fidelity Device
Clinically validated to collect cough events with exceptional integrity and accuracy, including distinguishing subject-coughs from external coughs.
Patient-Friendly Form Factor
Low-burden, sleek design aids patient comfort and compliance while mirroring real-life conditions.
Beyond Cough Count
Gain additional insight into cough burden alongside cough frequency by measuring cough intensity*, bouts, sleep/wake*, heart rate*, and other parameters*.
*For investigational use only

Wireless and Handsfree Cough Monitoring Device
- The RESP Biosensor offers an unobtrusive and wireless form factor designed for daily life.
- Sleek design helps ensure patients behave naturally, capturing authentic symptom data that mirrors real-life conditions and minimizes the Hawthorne effect.
