First off – what is the Zef? The Zef is a programmable smart sensor for people with asthma/COPD who medicate with a pressurised Metered Dose Inhalers (pMDI).

“I reasoned that the humble pMDI inhaler has been in the market since the 1960s, and it could do with a technology upgrade to solve everyday problems. Moreover, why not some “cool” design? Why should people with asthma have to interface with dull medical-looking technology? Simply said, they deserve better.”

Knowing when last puff was taken. Have you ever felt your pMDI mouthpiece for moisture?
Knowing how many puffs were taken today (and when)
Knowing the approximate number of puffs remaining in the canister. Not all canisters have counters
Knowing the number of days to medication expiration
Having reminders to take medication
Consistency with the inhalation cycle breathing and pauses between multiple doses

🤔💭 What do you miss out on because of asthma?

📋 Some of the most common everyday activities that asthma can interfere are athletic activities, quality sleep and diet.

⚽️🚵‍♀️🏋️‍♂️ Activities that involve long periods of exertion, such as soccer, distance running, basketball, and field hockey, may not be as easy. Also, cold-weather sports, such as ice hockey, cross-country skiing, and ice skating, may pose challenges. But many people with asthma are able to fully take part in these activities.

🥱😴 It’s common for asthma symptoms to come on at night, but that doesn't mean they should be put up with them. Night-time asthma symptoms are a sign that asthma isn’t well controlled, and that can make a risk of an asthma attack more probable.

🥛☕️🍪 Nutrition -- good or bad -- isn’t the only way that asthma might be affected by diet, such as:
· Diets High in Calories.

· Preservative Sensitivities.
· GERD
These are just some of everyday activities that asthma can interfere with. Living in asthma requires getting used to. Finding what works for each person and knowing to recognize the symptoms in time.
