case study
GeckoCap makes remembering to use your inhaler intuitive and fun — even in the absence of symptoms. Our ‘smart button’ can be easily applied to any inhaler and glows on schedule as a reminder for the child. Every use is recorded and transmitted to the cloud where the data can be analyzed to further improve care. Children are encouraged to self-manage their asthma through games, goals and rewards that are geared toward their specific adherence challenges.
Parents gain peace of mind through a smart alerting and notification system on their mobile phones. Doctors can access discrete and longitudinal data that are crucial for improving therapy, accurate diagnosis and reinforcement of adherence. Geckocap is initially focused on addressing pediatric asthma but the platform can be applied to a broad range of diseases, medications, and behaviors.
