B52. The clinical trial is:

Developing diagnostic tests for respiratory disease using sound measurement and machine learning techniques – clinical trial.

This study is designed to develop accurate digital diagnostic tests, used on a smart device, for common respiratory illnesses in children and adults including asthma, croup, bronchiolitis, COPD and pneumonia. These tests can then be used in resource-poor communities, emergency departments or via telehealth applications. The aim is to develop tests that are as accurate as an expert clinical assessment but do not need a clinical examination or other investigations such as x-rays to be performed. Patients with a history of a chronic respiratory condition or who have symptoms of an acute respiratory disease are included. Patients will be excluded if they: have an inability to provide a cough either spontaneously or voluntarily; are unable to provide informed consent or assent; have severe respiratory distress including the use of CPAP or BiPAP or have had abdominal or eye surgery within 3 months.

Open to people with severe respiratory symptoms.
Exploring new ways to confirm a person has a respiratory disorder.
Aimed at checking that expert clinical assessments are accurate.
