Description

The startup company Airbrio featured in a national newspaper article on issues with the use of Asthma inhalers. 

"A revolutionary hand-held device can help asthma patients use their inhalers properly. The gadget flashes a green light if the right amount of medication has been inhaled, and a red one if not.

Called the Airbrio, it could cut asthma attacks and wheezing by ensuring sufferers get the right amount of drug into their lungs.

The charity Asthma UK estimates up to one in three patients is making their condition worse by not using their inhaler properly.
