Your phone could soon diagnose asthma and COPD with sound waves
NCT ID NCT06512064
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether a smartphone app (AWARE) can accurately detect and monitor lung diseases like asthma, COPD, and cystic fibrosis by analyzing sound waves from the phone's speaker and microphone. Researchers will enroll 800 people aged 8-70, including healthy volunteers and those with various airway conditions. The goal is to see if the app can replace or supplement traditional breathing tests, making diagnosis easier and more accessible, especially through telemedicine.
