This study is a device study that will use a double-arm. It will integrate the ANNE ONE platform which continuously tracks enrolled COPD patients' vital signs and symptoms over the course of the study and digitally shares that data with providers for clinical interpretation, potential intervention and treatment decision making and will help evaluate the impact on participating patient's COPD Assessment Test (CAT) scores. Subjects will be recruited from Emory clinics and identified via a data pull based on clinical relevant codes. Letters will be sent out to eligible candidates and interested participants will contact the research team. The research team will consent them over the phone and mail the device to them; participants will be compensated.
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
ANNE ONE Platform

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a diseases that causes airflow limitation and breathing-related problems, affecting approximately 16 million people in the U.S., most of which are aged 40 and above with a history of smoking. COPD causes acute exacerbations where a patient has worsening symptoms (increased shortness of breath, cough, or sputum production). Managing COPD presents many challenges, as patients struggle to adhere to their prescribed treatment plans. Digital platforms are gradually becoming more available to enable providers to help patients manage their condition. These platforms create objective transparency, lessening the need for patients to consciously track their COPD exacerbation events, enabling providers to proactively manage their patients' condition, and creating actionable reports for providers to review with their patients. Ultimately, connected devices present a strong opportunity to provide patients with appropriate care earlier in the patient journey, while enabling pulmonologists to deliver more customized management based on close to real time objective data. The primary goal of this study is to evaluate the impact of the implementation of the ANNE ONE platform on patients with COPD's condition. This will be achieved by using the ANNE ONE platform to continuously track enrolled COPD patients' vital signs over the course of the study and digitally sharing that data with providers for clinical interpretation, potential intervention and treatment decision making. Interviews have been conducted with leading pulmonologists and staff at Emory Healthcare to understand what factors are considered when recommending a treatment pathway for a COPD patient, what the current workflow shortcomings are and how a new workflow using the ANNE ONE platform could effectively be integrated at a pulmonologist's office.
