- Abstract
- The number of deaths due to lung diseases is increasing in an aging society, and many cases of serious conditions arise when lung diseases are not treated early. Computed Tomography (CT) image analysis and spirometry performed in hospitals can only be used by skilled medical staff with professional devices. This paper introduce the lung disease screening and rehabilitation system to support people in measuring their lung conditions in daily life and receiving early medical treatment. The system consists of an exhalation analysis system, a portable spirometry system, and a lung sound analysis system, along with content software that can properly operate and train lung screening processes. The exhalation analysis system measures the Fractional exhaled Nitric Oxide (FeNO) discharged through respiration. The portable spirometry system measures pulmonary function and the lung sound analysis system auscultate lung sounds to screen lung abnormalities. The unit prototype systems had been developed, and clinical trials are underway to accumulate data for analysis. This system can be used for self-screening purposes in environments where medical access is limited due to COVID-19 infection risks, as well as for healthcare management of lung health.
