This narrative review by Hyfe's R&D team makes the case that continuous cough monitoring (CCM), powered by acoustic AI, transforms cough from a subjective symptom into a quantifiable digital biomarker.
This ERS 2025 abstract from Hyfe's R&D team validates the wear-detection algorithm built into the Hyfe CoughMonitor smartwatch against participant-reported wear status across 418 person-hours of data in ten participants.
Authored by Hyfe's R&D team, this review synthesizes work presented at the European Respiratory Society Congress 2025 and argues that objective cough monitoring has crossed a practical threshold, moving from experimental technique to deployable clinical endpoint.
This study asked whether the core components of BCST could be embedded in a digital therapeutic and paired with continuous, objective cough monitoring inside the CoughPro app.

This was a prospective cohort study carried out in Pamplona (Spain) between 2020 and 2021 using artificial intelligence cough detection software (followed 616 participants and collected >62 000 coughs). Changes in cough frequency around the time of medical consultation were evaluated using a randomisation routine; significance was tested by comparing the distribution of cough frequencies to that obtained from a model of no difference. The correlation between changes of cough frequency and COVID-19 incidence was studied using an autoregressive moving average analysis, and its strength determined by calculating its autocorrelation function (ACF). Predictors for the regular use of the system were studied using a linear regression. Overall user experience was evaluated using a satisfaction questionnaire and through focused group discussions.
