Breath-based diagnostics of respiratory infections
Our breath analysers identify common respiratory infections, even before the manifestation of symptoms
Respiratory infections are a growing burden — worsened by strained healthcare systems and unequal access to care
13.1B episodes,
2.5M deaths worldwide annually
20–50% could be prevented through early screening and isolation
11.1M global healthcare worker shortage by 2030
63% of primary care visits for acute respiratory infections could be avoided through better triage
Up to 73% faster hospitalisation discharge after point-of-care testing
24% (178M) of Europe’s population lives in rural areas with healthcare access challenges
Shortages in primary care for respiratory infections cause up to 3.5M non-urgent ED visits in Europe resulting in up to €1.4B of preventable spend per year
