The Asthmapolis System includes the Asthmapolis Sensor which is an electronic accessory device intended for single-patient use to assist physicians and patients in recording and monitoring the actuations of prescribed MDI usage.

The Asthmapolis Mobile Application records, stores, and transmits usage events from the Asthmapolis Sensor to a remote storage system.

The Asthmapolis Web Application is software intended to allow users to review the collected information and characteristics of MDI use, to add detail associated with a recorded usage event, and to share that information with their physician in order to provide additional information associated with the condition for which their MIDI medication(s) are prescribed.

The Asthniapolis System may also be used in clinical trials where researchers need to know information about use of a MDI Medication(s) by a participant.

The output of the Asthmapolis System is not intended to diagnose or replace a diagnosis provided by a licensed physician. The Asthmapolis system is not intended for use as a MDI medication dose counter, nor is it intended to indicate the quantity of medication remaining in an MDI.

Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
