Publication number: 20200058403Abstract: This description provides trigger identification notifications to patients suffering from respiratory diseases based on large amounts of patient data in order to help effect behavior changes in a patient to prevent inhaler rescue usage events from occurring. Rescue medication events, environmental conditions, and other contextually relevant patient information are detected by sensors associated with the patient's medicament devices and are collected from other sources, respectively to provide a basis to determine identify various triggers of rescue inhaler usage events for a patient. Each trigger is analyzed to determine the severity of the patient's reaction to the trigger and is used to send notifications accordingly.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 16, 2018Publication date: February 20, 2020Inventors: Meredith A.
