OPlay - A Medical Product for Children with Asthma
Medical product for children
OPlay integrates a musical instrument with a medical device to help young asthma patients manage the twin functions of asthma spacer and peak flow measuring. For children with asthma, it can be hard to remember when to take their medication. Complex treatment and symptoms, like stridors, may affect their experience and even acceptance of therapy. By transforming the complex process into several simple steps, matched with lighting guidance and music feedback, OPlay turns a tedious therapy into a joyful recital by the child, thereby improving both their physical and mental health.
Having had asthma as a child, I can identify with this concept. It resolves the fear children have with medical devices through a fun interaction. It is aesthetically refined and well designed, which promotes a better experience for both child and parent.
