Detection of Breath components
Advanced electronic systems for breath analysis
Exhaled breath analysis is a relatively new medical technique that has the potential to revolutionize the way doctors diagnose and treat a variety of illnesses. The technique of exhaled breath analysis has been used to diagnose a variety of illnesses, for example asthma, heart failure, diabetes, and many more. Breath analysis using a spirometer measures the amount of air a person can inhale and exhale, as well as the rate of flow. Gatty Instruments design and develops the next generation exhaled breath analysis instruments using MEMS-based sensors and systems connected to cloud technology. They plan to bring the measuring instruments directly into the hands of a consumer!
Our common understanding is that we breathe in Oxygen and breathe out carbon dioxide. True. But did you know that we breathe out 3500 other components as well?
With advanced sensors that can be integrated into the instrument, we can measure, and diagnose components from the exhaled breath such as flow, gas, pressure, and temperature to name a few. We take care of our lungs by knowing their performance.
Products and Services
Advanced electronic system Development
Sensors: We have developed the first prototype of the following sensors:
- Electrochemical sensors
- Metal oxide gas sensors
- Pressure sensors
Measurement PCB: We have developed the first prototype of PCB to evaluate the potential diagnosis of breath diseases and monitor on a hand-held device such as a mobile phone.
Consulting
When it comes to exhaled breath analysis either as a mainstream or sidestream breath, it gets complicated quickly. Even better if it is continuous monitoring such as for patients in hospitals or at home OR short-term monitoring such as for athletes, at home use, or at the doctor’s clinic to deduce the infection.
We provide consulting in the domain of exhaled breath detection instruments.
Collaboration
We are open to collaborating on projects, grant writing, and product development.
About us
Gatty Instruments AB is a Swedish R&D company that develops advanced electronic devices and systems using MEMS technology for breath diagnostic instruments. Founded in 2018, the company has developed advanced sensors such as gas sensors, pressure sensors, temperature sensors, and flow sensors together with a readout PCB that have potential applications in breath analysis instruments such as spirometers.
Our vision is to provide a healthy life to every individual through advanced medical diagnostic instruments. We offer vital solutions to people through sustained innovation in breath analysis. We want to be the leading global provider of these solutions.
With a focus on a non-invasive method of analysis with our custom-made advanced MEMS sensors that measure breath components. The determination of components accurately analyzes lung function, capacity, and diseases.
