Verbatim
“Accelerating access to ArtiQ.Spiro – an AI-enabled diagnostic tool – has real potential to address underdiagnosis in COPD, helping to reduce backlogs, reach more patients, and give healthcare professionals greater confidence to support their clinical decision making.”
“Spirometry services were significantly disrupted during the COVID-19 pandemic, with many areas across the country still working to restore capacity. Alongside this, workforce challenges exist, and there are limited numbers of accredited clinicians and often low confidence in interpreting results, which continue to widen the COPD diagnosis gap.”
