Project Overview

Eupnoos is an innovative respiratory health app developed by Atta Systems, combining expertise in software engineering, sound engineering, pulmonology, clinical trials, and user experience design. Utilizing breath sound analysis, the app performs lung function tests similar to a spirometer and tracks symptoms for better self-management of respiratory diseases. The project involves comprehensive product design and user research to meet patients’ specific needs, resulting in an intuitive user interface.

Atta Systems has been awarded the "R&D Project of the Year" for Eupnoos by ANIS Romania, the most significant software companies association in Romania.

Context

Asthma is one of the most prevalent chronic respiratory diseases worldwide. It affects an estimated 300 million people globally. Despite the availability of effective treatment options, suboptimal asthma control is still common. To prevent potentially life-threatening asthma attacks, patients need to be aware of early warning signs of deterioration.

Tracking variations, awareness of triggers, passively measured nocturnal cough, and sleep quality, have been reported to be statistically associated with asthma control in clinical studies.
