Cough & Lung Sound Endpoints for Clinical Trials
FDA 510(k) Cleared | CE Mark (Biosensor only)
Technology Overview
The Strados Labs RESP® Platform enables life sciences teams to objectively measure respiratory symptoms and physiological signals in daily life, providing greater insight into treatment response and differentiation across clinical programs.
- Patient-Friendly: Wireless, discreet form factor and privacy-preserving
- Multi-Parameter: Comprehensive respiratory and physiological measures that matter to patients
- Validated Reporting: Automated or manual (human) overread to meet endpoint requirements
