Managing Children's Asthma with a Low Cost Web-Enabled Multifunctional Device

The essence of this paper is to present an innovative, viable, low cost, cloud based asthma management system solution, regarding children’s asthma issues. The proposed device is a spirometric element that combines the functionality of several other devices that are so important for the daily life of asthma patients aged between 6 to 14. All the above are achieved using the latest technology in wireless and medical equipment that would make the device become irreplaceable to the end user.
