For Cough Monitoring
Elevate your understanding of cough burden with the RESP® Platform
Chronic cough, which impacts between 10-20% of the US population,1 can be both a symptom of another health condition, such as idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) or asthma, or a disease without an underlying cause. More than an annoyance, chronic cough can significantly impact quality of life, including interrupting sleep and disrupting social life.2,3
Despite cough’s prevalence and impact, there remains a lack of reliable, patient-friendly technologies for objectively measuring cough in daily life. The RESP® Platform provides a leading solution for assessing cough burden in research and clinical trials alongside patient-reported outcomes, delivering objective, comprehensive insights while reducing site and patient burden.
