Asthma Treatment Check tool

You can activate the treatment check tool for your patient by selecting it when you send instructions.

Decide how often you recommend the patient to do a treatment check. The recommendation will be displayed in the app. However the patient can do more or less tests than recommended.

Once you’re done you can send the updated instructions to your patient. They will receive a notification and message in the app about their new instructions.

To do a treatment check, the patient needs to complete the following steps:

1. Go to the start page in the app and scroll down to the Treatment check tool card.
2. Tap on ‘New check’
3. First-time users will see a guide explaining how the tool works.
4. The spirometer will automatically connect
5. Perform one lung test. If the patient is unhappy with the results, or make an error, they can redo the lung test.
6. Register symptoms from the past 7 days
7. Register any triggers that may have affected your asthma today and leave an optional comment
8. If the patient has a treatment plan, the relevant recommendation will be displayed.

Once the session is completed the patient can view the treatment recommendation on the home page. The treatment recommendation is visible for 24 hours. Beneath the treatment check card they can also tap “Past checks” to view more in-depth results.

You can view the results from all treatment checks by going to the patient page in Careportal and clicking the Asthma Treatment Check tab.

The FEV1 results are displayed in an over time graph, you can select which time period you want to view at the top. You can also view registered symptoms and the treatment plan used during the selected period.

By clicking the ”Summary of selected period” tab, next to the treatment plan, you can see aggregated symptom, trigger and FEV1 data.
