Use our friendly app to see all your data from ADAMM at a glance, so you understand what’s going on.
ADAMM is the only device that measures significant health parameters for asthma and COPD as you go about your daily life – all you need to do is put it on!
Continuous Data Capture
Understand what impacts you on an ongoing basis. For the first time, unparalleled access to your unique health parameter trends.

AeroChamberGet more from every inhaler dose
Using your inhaler with the AEROCHAMBER PLUS® FLOW-VU® chamber decreases the amount of aerosol from the inhaler that lands in your mouth, which can cause drug side effects. Use together to help get more medication deeper into your lungs where it needs to be to work the best.

05About usWhy our CEO built this. She has asthma too.

Why we built HCO Respiratory Care
“I have had asthma since I was a child, and have almost died from asthma attacks many times. My parents were worried that they didn’t know what was going on, so my activities were severely limited. As a child, I remember not understanding why, wanting to be able to do more but being afraid to.

As an adult with asthma, even though I thought I was well controlled, I often didn’t understand my symptoms because I was so used to them, and life is so busy, I often don’t stop to take care of them until it was too late. I can also now understand the toll this takes not just on me, but all my loved ones.
ADAMM changed all of that for me – I know what’s normal symptom levels for me, and when I’m moving away from my personal baseline, so I can take steps to reduce impacts. It takes away almost all of the boredom of my daily log, and so saves me time. It’s a system that could have helped my parents be less afraid, and helped me and my loved ones live a bigger, fuller life with freedom from constant worrying. That vision of a big, full life coupled with peace of mind for all is why we do what we do at HCO.”
