sounds for wheeze rate, depending
on the background noise and the
correct position of the sensor.
If you have a blocked nose, it is
recommended to open your mouth
while recording.
4. Your wheeze rate will be displayed.
Follow the instructions in the app to
set up an account so you can store
your history of recordings, wheeze
rate results and other information
securely on the cloud.
5. Turn the breath sensor off by holding
the power button until the LED goes
out. Note that it will automatically
turn off after 2 minutes of remaining
idle in order to save power.
