About this trial

The purpose of the study is to collect data: audio in the form of respiratory sounds and instructions from the therapist, spirometry data during the execution of the therapy, physiological parameters, and patient information. With the help of this data, algorithms will be developed for the automatic detection, localization, and classification of respiratory sounds, linked to the respiratory cycle using spirometric signals.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

The patient has a chronic or acute respiratory condition and may need oxygen therapy

The patient is minimally 12 years old

Trial design

Design model

Single group

Treatments tested in this trial

  • Monitoring of patients

    Other intervention

    Data from a spirometer and a stethoscope are captured to develop algorithms to detect and classify respiration sounds to support therapists and patients in future therapy.
