Title:

COUGH DETECTION, ANALYSIS, AND COMMUNICATION PLATFORM

Document Type and Number:

WIPO Patent Application WO/2015/013183

Kind Code:

A3

Abstract:

A cough detection, analysis, and communication platform may be provided. The platform may comprise methods, systems, and a devices for detecting, analyzing, and communicating cough detection data. A cough detection device may comprise at least one microphone and analytic firmware used to employ methods of detecting, analyzing, and communicating the cough detection data. The analytic software may be updated to use the appropriate algorithms for an individual or corresponding demographic based on, for example, age and disease, with abnormal cough frequency components, abnormal cough frequency profiles, and alert thresholds. The cough detection device may be configured to communicate cough detection data to a server. The server, in turn, may be operative to process and communicate the data to a third party, such as, for example, a physician. Systems may further be operative to provide a user interface (e.g., mobile or web applications) for interfacing with the platform.
