The parts nobody else sees
Bronchiectasis is daily work: clearing mucus from your lungs once or twice a day, watching the color of what you cough up, and deciding whether a bad week is a cold or a flare-up. Healya is built by people who know what that load feels like.
Airway clearance sessions to bring up mucus often take ten to thirty minutes, once or twice a day.
Most people with bronchiectasis cough up some mucus every day, even when they feel well.
A change in the color or amount of your sputum can be the first sign of a flare-up.
Your numbers already tell a story
Healya connects your sputum color, cough score, breathlessness, oxygen saturation if you check it, airway clearance and what changed that day so the story is visible, to you and to your pulmonologist.
The number of days each month your sputum was green, over twelve months, as bars and as a line, with the cold in early October marked. It was between 2 and 4 days every month for eleven months, then 14 days in October, the count to show your pulmonologist rather than describe from memory.
Your cough score, 0 to 10, averaged each week over twelve weeks, with the week the cold started marked. It sat between 2 and 3 for the seven weeks before, then climbed from 3 the week the cold started to 5 now, through the same weeks your green sputum days went up.
Your oxygen saturation from a fingertip pulse oximeter, the average of your morning readings each month over eight months, with your last visit with Dr. Rutherford marked. It stayed at 95 or 96 the whole time, through the cold and the green weeks, which is worth showing next to the sputum count.
A cold that lingers, a flare-up you are not sure about, or a steady year of airway clearance: your sputum days are data, and Healya can track them.
How Healya helps with bronchiectasis
The color you check, kept for you
A thirty-second check-in with your sputum color and amount, your cough and breathlessness scores, oxygen saturation if you check it and your medicines taken, so months of green and clear days sit on one timeline you and your pulmonologist can read.
A cough next to what came with it
Fevers, colds, a skipped airway clearance session, short nights and what changed that day, logged next to each day's sputum and cough, so the question of cold or flare-up has a record behind it that you and your pulmonologist can read together.
A message drafted for the office
When the record shows weeks worth mentioning before the next visit, Healya drafts a message to your pulmonologist with the days behind it, for you to send. Sputum culture results and lung function tests arrive through your patient portal, such as MyChart, onto the same timeline.
A summary your pulmonologist can scan
A year of sputum days, cough scores, breathlessness, oxygen saturation, flare-ups and your medicines on one page, with the questions worth asking. Visits go further when the story is already organized.
No wearable required. A thirty-second daily check-in is enough.
Reports written for bronchiectasis
Three kinds, each built from your own record. A summary before every pulmonology visit. A report on how your months are actually going. And a plain-language digest of new bronchiectasis research, on a schedule you choose.
