Incentive Spirometry Video Games
Introducing ZEPHYRx
It's amazing what a few deep breaths can do.
The ZEPHYRx™ platform combines incentive spirometry with an engaging selection of breath-driven video games, encouraging more frequent usage, and better patient outcomes.
Better Breathing Can Lead to Healthier Patients
Fun, diverse breathing games keep patients engaged. Patients control the game play with their breath, following on screen prompts to inhale/hold/exhale via the bluetooth connected spirometer. This elicits greater participation and patient adherence to their prescribed respiratory therapy.

Video games increase pain tolerance
As shown in multiple studies, video games increase pain tolerance through active distraction which in turns increases game plan duration.
