Life has changed a lot in 100 years. It's about time respiratory diagnostics did too.
"Good respiratory care relies on timely access to accurate
diagnosis. Currently in the UK the provision of respiratory
diagnostic tests, especially spirometry used to diagnose COPD, is
entirely inadequate. This results in delayed diagnosis and in many
cases, people are waiting months or years for tests. Currently
over one third of people living with COPD do not have a formal
diagnosis. The reasons for this are complex but at the heart of
the matter is that spirometry is complex to perform and interpret
and alternative approaches to deliver rapid, accurate diagnosis
are desperately needed.
N-Tidal Diagnose provides the first real opportunity to change
this paradigm and offers the chance to transform the COPD
diagnostic landscape as the first novel approach to achieve
regulatory approvals in the UK/EU. It's up to the respiratory
community to find ways to harness this exciting development to
deliver the benefits our patients deserve."
