BreatheSuite Receives FDA Clearance for Over-the-Counter Device to Turn Regular Metered-Dose Inhalers into Smart Inhalers

BreatheSuite

BreatheSuite Inc., a Canadian connected respiratory health company, today announced that it has received 510(K) clearance from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for its BreatheSuite Metered-Dose Inhaler (MDI) V1 device. Approved for both prescription and over-the-counter use, the BreatheSuite device turns existing MDIs into smart inhalers by automatically and objectively monitoring and providing feedback on inhaler adherence and technique for people with asthma and COPD. Tens of millions of Americans currently use MDIs. Techniques such as shaking the MDI 10-15 times, as well as breath timing and positioning, can greatly impact the amount of medication that reaches the lungs. For every 100 people who use an inhaler, 90 are using it incorrectly; 66 are not adherent to the medication as prescribed (skipping doses, etc.). Inhaler misuse makes up about $5- $7 billion of the approximately $25 billion spent on inhalers annually. The BreatheSuite System – composed of a disposable, battery-powered, portable BreatheSuite MDI add-on device and a mobile application based on behavior change strategies – is designed to work with an MDI by attaching to the top of the canister of the patient’s inhaler. The device and mobile app work together to evaluate and “score” a person’s inhaler technique and usage patterns, storing results in the cloud so the person can track and use this information to improve how they use their inhaler. With consent, this information can also be remotely monitored by the person’s healthcare team to promote customizable care plans. By promoting more effective inhaler use and remote patient monitoring (RPM), BreatheSuite aims to improve quality of care and health outcomes while reducing the economic burden associated with these conditions. Medical costs for chronic COPD were estimated to reach $49 billion in 2020, and the annual economic cost of asthma from 2008-2013 was more than $81.9 billion – with medical costs alone accounting for $50.3 billion. “We are extremely excited to have obtained FDA clearance, which is a critical step in achieving our vision of improving the lives of respiratory patients worldwide,” said Brett Vokey, Founder and CEO of BreatheSuite. “The COVID-19 pandemic has underscored that now is the time for remote patient monitoring to take a front seat in providing better, more transparent care for all people with asthma or COPD. With FDA clearance, we are poised to become a leader in providing actionable insights to people with asthma or COPD across the United States.” “By having a real-time way to digitally monitor and provide feedback to patients, we hope to enhance healthcare outcomes,” said Dr. Meshari F. Alwashmi, Chief Scientific Officer, BreatheSuite. “Furthermore, having an objective measure of adherence and technique from each user with asthma and COPD will advance the sphere of knowledge regarding the effectiveness of inhaled medications.” The BreatheSuite device does not interfere with regular MDI usage and can be removed and reattached to a new inhaler with ease. The device is compatible with 90% of MDIs on the market, including those manufactured by GlaxoSmithKline (GSK), Teva and Prasco. In addition to FDA clearance, which is a first for a Newfoundland and Labrador-based company, the BreatheSuite device has also been cleared for sale in Canada. About BreatheSuite BreatheSuite is a Canadian connected health company founded in 2018 to help people with chronic respiratory conditions live longer, healthier lives. The BreatheSuite MDI device is designed to track and train proper inhaler usage, while the BreatheSuite App applies behavior change tactics to improve adherence, and tips on how to improve inhaler technique. BreatheSuite works with leading partners across North America to deliver better care to people with chronic respiratory conditions.

The State of Our Schools: The Nation’s Public School Facilities in Crisis

YourUpdateTV

A video accompanying this announcement is available at: https://youtu.be/g7dJiz_7fRI Living through a pandemic has heightened the awareness for many parents around the issues of health and safety in the schools their children attend. As school districts across the U.S. prepare for and begin a new academic year, the International WELL Building Institute (IWBI), along with 21 st Century School Fund and the National Council on School Facilities, is releasing a new report that takes a comprehensive look into the current state of our nation’s school facilities funding and draws attention to the disparity across the U.S. in funding efforts. Ending disparities in facilities conditions and quality by income, locale and race, must be prioritized as these gaps will not be closed without an aggressive and an intentional plan to eliminate them. IWBI is working to ensure the health, safety, education suitability, and environmental sustainability and resilience for our students, teachers and staff now and for the future. The 2021 State of Our Schools Report puts a white-hot spotlight on the fact that severe and chronic underinvestment – to the tune of $85 billion a year – is eroding the country’s ability to provide safe, healthy and sustainable schools. Every day, nearly 60 million people—students, teachers and staff—walk through the doors of our country’s nearly 100,000 PK-12 public schools, which represent the second largest sector of U.S. public infrastructure spending after highways. States and local school districts do their best to increase their efforts to maintain and invest in their school facilities when funding is available, but they are falling further and further behind.

Heather Jacoby, CEO and Founder of Asé Pure Naturals, Completes First 50K Ultra Marathon, Attributes CBD Use to Her Achievement

Asé Pure Naturals

As an avid athlete and health aficionado, Heather Jacoby, the CEO and Founder of CBD company Asé Pure Naturals, is no stranger to putting in the time and effort to make her body function at its highest levels. A veteran of multiple half marathons, Ms. Jacoby realized it was time to set a bigger goal for herself at the dawn of 2021, and she decided to pursue running a full marathon, comprised of 26.2 miles. However, this spring, when she set off at Colonel Francis Beatty Park in Matthews, North Carolina, to run her personal race, she surprised herself at the 26.2-mile marker, and decided to keep going. Ultimately, she ended up running her first 50K Ultra Marathon (31 miles) that day and attributes her accomplishment to her use of CBD during her training. “I have always been a passionate trail runner and I really wanted to do something to challenge myself. That’s why I set the goal of running a full marathon,” stated Ms. Jacoby. “So, when I did that and realized I wasn’t ready to stop, I decided to reassess my goal right there on the spot and keep going. And I ended up completing a 50K!” During her training, Ms. Jacoby engaged in the 75 Hard Challenge, which is a mental toughness program designed to boost confidence, self-esteem, self-worth, self-belief, fortitude, and grittiness. The program is designed to improve whole body wellness—mentally and physically. On top of this, she also implemented Asé Pure Naturals products, including CBD tinctures and a topical muscle gel roll on. The latter, specifically, aided in muscle recovery. “I ran over 575 miles during a 75-day training period, and at the end of the day, that type of intensity can easily lead to overuse. Asé Pure Naturals’ Muscle Gel Roll On was a game changer for me. It really offered significant relief from joint and muscle pain. Plus, it’s completely all natural and organic, so I didn’t have to worry about the effects of pharmaceutical or chemical compounds on the good work I was doing with my body,” noted Ms. Jacoby. All in all, Ms. Jacoby’s 50K Ultra Marathon took her approximately seven and a half hours to complete. She looks forward to her continued use of CBD products as she ponders her next athletic goal and encourages other athletes as well as hobbyists who simply enjoy being active to consider implementing CBD into their own workout and exercise endeavors. “My company, Asé Pure Naturals, is one of the most promising CBD brands currently on the market. I make the guarantee to my customers that our products contain everything they should and nothing they should not. CBD truly offers people the ability to meet and exceed their health and wellness goals and realize an improved life,” confirmed Ms. Jacoby. “Plus, when you use an Asé Pure Naturals product you can feel confident knowing that you are using a CBD product that is 100% natural, gluten free, non-GMO, cruelty free, vegan, and organic. This is so important because CBD is not yet regulated by the FDA.” Additionally, Asé Pure Naturals is a member of the Hemp Industries Association. The company’s products are manufactured in a GMP Certified Facility and made with hemp that is grown in the United States. Plus, all Asé Pure Naturals products are third-party lab tested, offering consumers added peace of mind. Consumers are invited to learn more about Asé Pure Naturals’ line of full-spectrum and broad-spectrum CBD topicals, tinctures, and softgel capsules by visiting the company online at www.asepurenaturals.com. Asé Pure Naturals, founded by health and wellness expert Heather Jacoby, was established in 2020 and is a woman-owned CBD product brand. Based in Charlotte, North Carolina, and serving customers around the country, the company only uses raw CBD material grown from custom, proprietary strains found at organic CBD farms. Their CBD is extracted using the safest and most eco-friendly methods in the industry, which also eliminates unwanted chemicals and residual solvents, and delivers CBD oil that has all of the essential cannabidiols and terpenes that consumers seek. The company’s products are manufactured in their Colorado-based facility and face stringent third-party testing to ensure organic and pure quality.

Prostate Cancer Racial Disparities

YourUpdateTV

Despite great strides in prostate cancer care over the past several years, racial disparities in care persist. Black and Hispanic men have a high burden of prostate cancer mortality. Prostate cancer affects 1 in 8 men, with the number rising to 1 in 6 for Black men and comprises more than 1 in 5 of all new cancer diagnoses for Hispanic men. The Covid-19 pandemic has also made things worse as early in the pandemic, many cancer resources were diverted, leaving scores of patients, including those with prostate cancer, with limited to no access to surgical treatment. So, what can be done and what does someone need to know to stay healthy? Conducting a nationwide media tour to discuss this important topic was Dr. Brian K. McNeil. Dr McNeil is an American Urological Association spokesperson and Associate Dean for Clinical Affairs, Vice-Chair, Department of Urology at SUNY Downstate Health Sciences University Topics that Dr McNeil discussed during interviews with radio and TV stations across the country included: What research has discovered about racial disparities among men with prostate cancer The racial disparity in the utilization of new therapies for advanced prostate cancer How covid-19 and where someone lives could affect their treatment options When should men get screened for prostate cancer?
