New app and spirometer could help COPD patients breathe easier at home
NCT ID NCT07573098
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study is testing a digital tool that includes a spirometer and an app to help people with COPD monitor their lung function daily at home. The goal is to see if the tool is easy to use, safe, and helps patients know when to seek medical care. Fifty adults with COPD who have had at least one flare-up in the past year will use the device for six months. The study does not test a cure or treatment, but rather a way to improve self-management and reduce unnecessary hospital visits.
