Could a Pocket-Sized spirometer replace hospital lung tests?
NCT ID NCT07447232
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study will test a handheld ultrasonic spirometer against a conventional hospital spirometer in 100 adults with chronic respiratory diseases like COPD or asthma. Each participant will use both devices to see if the portable one gives accurate and reliable results. If successful, it may offer a convenient way for patients to monitor their breathing at home.

Active substance
handheld ultrasonic spirometer
What this could lead to
If the handheld device proves accurate, it could allow patients to monitor lung function at home instead of only in a hospital.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage comparison study, not a treatment trial. The device may not be as reliable as standard equipment, and results may not apply to all patients.
