The Company’s flagship product is the RESP Smart Sensor Platform—a first-of-its-kind smart sensor platform for respiratory health. Its cloud-based engine via machine learning and smart sensors aids in early and remote detection of key changes in lung acoustics and respiratory patterns of patients. It also acts as an extension of care teams—facilitating remote patient monitoring, integrating with existing clinical workflows, pairing lung sounds and breathing patterns to build robust and accurate depictions of patient’s pulmonary sounds using patent-pending algorithms. The data provided to clinicians can be used for various interventions to enhance patient care. RESP sensors and algorithms can help detect and predict worsening issues—potentially aiding clinicians and patients in avoiding pulmonary failure events that are life threatening and costly. RESP™ is used in respiratory clinical trials to capture lung sound measurements data as primary and exploratory endpoints.

Strados Labs was recently granted a CE Mark for the Company’s RESP™ Smart Sensor Platform for respiratory health. The Company received its FDA Class II 510(k) clearance for RESP last December. The Company will continue to target asthma, COPD and infectious respiratory diseases (COVID, RSV, etc.) as it moves into 2022 and plans to add heart failure in late 2022.
