if the SmartTouch™sensor is within range (5 meters or
16 feet) of the smartphone or tablet computer.
When travelling ensure your smartphone or tablet
computer is set to the local time zone for accuracy
of MDI actuation logs.
Manually Uploading Stored Information
The SmartTouch™sensor can manually upload
information to a paired Bluetooth®smartphone or
tablet computer.

SmartTouch™Sensor Intended Use
The SmartTouch™sensor is intended for single
patient use as a medication reminder and electronic
data capture accessory for recording actuations

12
of prescribed MDI usage. This may be used in the
following applications:
• In clinical trials, where researchers need to know when
a patient has actuated their trial MDI medication.
• In clinical practice, where specialists, general
practitioners, nurses, and educators need to know if a
patient has actuated their prescribed MDI medication.
• In self-management, where patients need to track
their medication use as part of their management plan.
The SmartTouch™sensor is compatible only with
Bevespi Aerosphere™MDI.
The SmartTouch™sensor is not intended to indicate
remaining quantity of medication in an MDI and does
not include a dose counting function.
How the SmartTouch™Sensor Works
The SmartTouch™sensor is a small battery-powered
electronic data logger that attaches to an MDI. The
SmartTouch™sensor contains an electronic clock and
calendar that is used to log the date and time of MDI
actuation. The SmartTouch™sensor registers MDI
actuations. Usage data can be uploaded via a wireless
Bluetooth®connection.

use the SmartTouch™ sensor with any other MDI or
medication than that indicated on the SmartTouch™
sensor label.
