Asthma panel study schematic diagram. The bidirectional MEDena® Health-Hubis updated with meteorological forecasting and air-quality information regarding DDS events and sends alerts and exposure reduction guidelines to parents and teachers of asthmatic children participating in the study. At the same time, the MEDena® Health-Hub is automatically collecting the physical activity and GPS data from the wristbands worn by the children. Researchers also manually upload children clinical data and air quality measurements.
