摘要:
Devices and methods are disclosed for monitoring a patient's compliance with an inhaler treatment regimen and assisting in prescription refills. The device may monitor an inhaler's motion to determine whether the motion is characteristic of typical inhaler use. Additionally, the device may monitor a temperature of the inhaler or in proximity to the mouthpiece to determine whether a patient has used the inhaler. The devices and methods may incorporate a smart phone application that provides notifications and alerts to aid in compliance with the medication regimen, as well as facilitating prescription refills.
