COPD
Conditions
Brief summary
Objective to establish a real-time early warning model of acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) caused by air pollution, and develop the corresponding mobile medical assistant system. Through the cross fusion of existing information technology and medical research results, an auxiliary medical system is formed for information recording, tracking tools, early warning model and clinical diagnosis of patients with COPD.
