Cambridge Respiratory Innovations is developing both a simple, patient friendly, quantifiable asthma metric (currently absent in asthma management) and a low-cost personal medical device that would ultimately facilitate closed loop control of poorly managed asthma. The capnometer and respiration rate meter are based on a patented non-dispersive infra-red, fast acting sensor. It is anticipated that the use of the devices will increase personal disease ownership, improve medicines compliance and reduce respiratory exacerbations, minimising acute in-patient stays

Biovici is developing a proof of concept sensor capable of detecting a drug and or relevant biomarkers. The biosensor uses nanotechnology to provide rapid point of care, non-invasive diagnostic monitoring. The intervention consists of a disposable test strip and hand held readers.

Blue Maestro develops health and environmental monitoring devices that utilise smartphone connectivity. The company is working on is a unique medicine adherence tracking sensor that can be placed on standard over the counter medicine containers. The sensor determines whether the medicine has been used and if not, will remind the patient through their smartphone and carers and family members through the internet.
