Child-friendly Asthma Peak Flow Meter is still a concept

Astha_Peak_Flow_Meter.jpg Only folks who suffer from asthma can value a med-product like a peak flow meter. This device can warn the user of an approaching asthma attack. And targeting the young asthma patients, Joe Dougherty has conceptualized a kid-friendly Peak Flow Meter. With the easy-to-interpret color lights, kids can easily interpret the feedback. This helps them to know how much dose should be administered. To administer medication the inhaler is held in a comfortable manner (like shown in the image) and the scissor-like actions delivers the proper dosage. Such a user-friendly asthma device combines asthma medication and peak flow to promote a new gestural way in which children can learn to identify and maintain their condition. In short making them independent to handle the breathlessness attacks without worry. Astha_Peak_Flow_Meter_1.jpg Astha_Peak_Flow_Meter_2.jpg Astha_Peak_Flow_Meter_3.jpg
