A new wearable lung patch developed by researchers at Georgia Institute of Technology employs deep learning to detect wheezing sounds, a key indicator of asthma and COPD. This innovative device addresses the limitations of traditional digital stethoscopes, which struggle with ambient noise interference. The patch's microchip sensor enhances the accuracy of respiratory disease classification, potentially speeding up diagnosis and treatment.
The pilot study demonstrated that the deep learning model paired with the wearable patch achieved impressive accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity rates for wheeze detection. This technology not only offers a promising solution for short-term clinical screening but also for long-term home monitoring, particularly benefiting patients with obesity who are at higher risk for respiratory conditions. The researchers envision a wireless version of the patch that could facilitate remote monitoring and improve health outcomes.
