CoughTracker

Cough is one of the most common symptoms that leads people to visit a healthcare provider. CoughTracker helps people to track when they are coughing and when their cough becomes more or less frequent. By using artificial intelligence, CoughTracker monitors cough frequency and helps you identify cough trends. Here's how it works: CoughTracker identifies the explosive sounds that might be coughs. Then these sounds are analyzed and, once confirmed as coughs, they are recorded on your own dashboard. You can see how many times you cough and when your cough is occurring. When the app is running, the app records a very short sample – a half second or so -- every time there is a cough-like sound. The sample is too short to contain any contextual information, but long enough to determine if you have coughed. As a CoughTracker user, you are in control of what information you want to share. And anything you agree to share is anonymized. There is no link between an individual person and their data. The accuracy of the data collected and presented through CoughTracker has not been evaluated by the FDA and is not intended to be used in any medical decision-making capacity, including presenting CoughTracker-gathered cough information to a healthcare professional for management of a patient's cough-related symptoms or conditions.
