At CHEST 2025, held in Chicago, Illinois, Laurie Slovarp, PhD, CCC-SLP, professor at the University of Montana and certified speech pathologist, presented a poster on the development of a digital therapeutic designed to improve access to behavioral cough suppression therapy for patients with refractory chronic cough.
A large-scale trial examining the effect of azithromycin on the relationship between oesophageal function and cough as evaluated by Hyfe's cough monitoring technology in respiratory disease is feasible and acceptable to patients.
This study used Hyfe's wearable cough monitor during a 7-day run in, 28-day treatment, and 14-day follow-up period in patients with chronic bronchitis.
Periods of intense coughing (termed bouts, epochs or bursts) are particularly problematic for some coughers and may not be reflected by simply counting the number of coughs per day. This study explored how varying the definition of bouts yield different impressions of cough severity.
PPG-based algorithm achieves 98.93% accuracy in detecting device wear status with negligible battery impact, eliminating the critical problem of misclassifying patient stillness as non-compliance in continuous monitoring applications.
Simulation evidence supporting continuous, automated monitoring as a superior approach for clinical research.
A study demonstrating the use of synchronized wearables to determine when a cough monitor detects non-user coughs
Addressing privacy risks in clinical trials - edge computing and on-device cough analytics safeguard participant privacy, ensure regulatory compliance, and optimize clinical trial scalability.
