DailyBreath is a ‘Waze-like’ Respiratory Health App that Helps People Better Manage Their Triggers
People with asthma, allergies, COPD, and respiratory viruses – like COVID-19 – benefit from the DailyBreath app which tracks and maps user-reported symptoms in real-time. This helps users know how to stay healthy in their community, state, and or around the country.
Current DailyBreath users are recording where and in what situations they experience symptoms creating a community view of respiratory triggers.
Users have opted-in to provide their health information that, when combined with environmental data, helps users and their healthcare providers better manage their health.
DailyBreath API combines real-time weather and environmental data and then applies a study-based evidence algorithm to generate the DailyBreath Risk Index for web sites, patient engagement portals or apps, or other digital products.
Healthcare providers, insurers, advocacy groups, and developers can all benefit from the DailyBreath API that creates a personalized tracking and reporting tool to help ensure that those affected by respiratory conditions are actively aware of the situation and can take action to prevent occurrences and exacerbation.
The DailyBreath API is an application programming interface that mashes up real-time weather and environmental data and applies the data to a study-based evidence algorithm to create the DailyBreath Risk Index. The API includes:
- The Daily Breath Risk Index – based on study-based evidence,
- Prevailing Factors – those factors that were most pertinent to the DBRI calculation,
- The Impact Summary – A summary of why the prevailing factors increase the relative risk of experiencing an asthma exacerbation, and
- Daily Recommendations- Preventative action steps to take that will help avoid triggers or significantly reduce the potential impact of triggers.
The API includes the specific weather and environmental data variables so any of them can be included in the execution of the API for the client’s use case. The API can be integrated into web sites and mobile apps including online properties, patient portals, and patient engagement apps.
