GeckoCap: Simple Asthma Management for Kids and Parents
GeckoCap is a cap that fits on a child’s asthma inhaler. The cap makes it easier for parents and kids to remember when the next inhaler dose is needed by i) glowing when the dose is required and ii) uploading usage data wirelessly to an online platform that also notifies parents when a dose is missed or when the inhaler is running low. The online interface also allows parents to create their own reward systems for their kids to increase the child’s asthma awareness and improve adherence. GeckoCap is not yet available, but we hope so soon.
