Abstract: A method, an electronic device, a system and an information storage medium for practicing and/or controlling an inhalation process of a patient. The method involves quantifying an airflow in a mouthpiece of an inhaler during an inhalation process of the patient using an inhalation training device, evaluating an airflow signal received from the inhalation training device via an electronic device and providing visual feedback to the patient with the electronic device, the visual feedback varying with one or more time-variant characteristics of the evaluated airflow signal. The electronic device is configured for evaluation of an airflow signal received from an inhalation training device and for provision of visual feedback to the patient, the visual feedback varying with one or more time-variant characteristics of the evaluated signal. The inhalation training system comprises an inhalation training device, an inhaler and the electronic device.

Abstract: An inhalation training device and inhalation training system for practicing of an inhalation process of a patient. The inhalation training device has a that is housing attachable to and detachable from a mouthpiece of an inhaler designed to provide a drug to the patient and a microphone adapted to measure the airflow occurring in the mouthpiece of the inhaler during an inhalation process of the patient. The inhalation training system includes the inhalation training device, an inhaler and an electronic device configured for evaluation of a signal received from the inhalation training device and for visual and/or audio feedback to the patient.

Abstract: An inhalation training system and a method for practicing of an inhalation process and a method of operating a portable communications device in this respect and to an information storage medium are improved. An air flow during inhalation is converted into an acoustic signal, especially a whistling tone. The acoustic signal is picked up by a microphone of a portable communications device, such as a smartphone, and is electronically evaluated. The inhalation training system has a mouthpiece and a converter apparatus for converting the air flow into the acoustic signal and in addition has a holding apparatus for especially detachable holding of the communications device.
