SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MEASURING INSPIRATORY/EXPIRATORY AIR FLOW
20220233094 · 2022-07-28 ·

A method and a system for measuring inspiratory/expiratory air flow rate from inhalation/expiration near a microphone of an electronic device by a user. An inhaler is selected by the user among a plurality of possible inhalers, and the user is prompted to perform an inhalation/expiration close to a microphone of the computing device. Sound is measured during inhalation/expiration and sound data derived therefrom. There is determined the inspiratory/expiratory air flow rate by comparing the collected sound data with a flow rate data set used by the industrially calibrated device and stored in an inhaler-appropriate flow-rate database, and if the inspiratory/expiratory air flow rate is within a predetermined range for the selected inhaler, thereby determining whether the selected inhaler is one of the appropriate inhalers for the inspiratory/expiratory flow measured by comparing the determined inspiratory/expiratory air flow rate with a range of inspiratory/expiratory air flow rates corresponding to the selected inhaler.
