SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR REMOTE COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS OF VOLATILE ORGANIC COMPONENTS IN BREATH

摘要

A tool for telemedicine including an improved breath collection system of human breath to facilitate the analysis of volatile organic components (VOCs) contained in human breath in which breath tests can be performed at remote sites for rapid detection of different diseases. The system can include a standoff breath collection device including an arcuate structure for concentration and analysis of volatile organic components (VOCs) at the point-of-use that avoids the use of mouthpieces found in conventional breath collection apparatuses.
