Continuous Auscultation:
Novel Insights into Lung Health

Traditional auscultation with a stethoscope has been the gold standard for assessing lung health for over a century, with abnormal events, such as cough, wheezing, rhonchi, or crackles providing reliable indicators of blockage and other problems of the airways.   

As auscultation has been limited to episodic, in-person exams, Strados Labs developed the RESP® Biosensor to extend the temporal and geographic range of stethoscopes, providing clinicians and researchers with greater insight into patient respiratory health.

Our technology, backed by numerous publications and awards, is used globally by life sciences companies to measure treatment effects and in healthcare settings to enhance patient monitoring and disease management.

Filling a Gap in Standard of Care

While pulmonary function tests, episodic auscultation, and patient-reported outcomes remain standard of care in respiratory care and research, RESP® addresses key limitations of each approach.
