Bringing care closer to home with Breathe RM

Breathe RM is a remote monitoring solution created by Magic Bullet, a not-for-profit social enterprise.  Specialising in digital care technology for cystic fibrosis patients since 2017, we are committed to working with NHS teams to meet the care demands of modern cystic fibrosis and respiratory clinic services.

Breathe RM is evolving to improve hospital and ICB outcomes.

Our platform enables:

  • Decrease frequency of routine in-hospital visits, while mitigating gaps in care visibility which may arise during virtual care.

  • With longitudinal data, spot trends and intervene early to reduce patient exacerbations and hospital admissions, in line with admission avoidance targets.

  • Optimise clinic resources, enabling care teams to prioritise time in clinic with patients who are most in need.

The Breathe RM evidence base:

Remote monitoring technologies are now used in CF clinics in the UK, Europe and the US. Virtual monitoring in cystic fibrosis has been shown to be acceptable, feasible, and usable with the potential to positively impact health outcomes. (1)

Remote monitoring unlocks a higher standard of care for patients who cannot frequently travel to clinics, are most at risk of exacerbations and those who prefer a virtual care model. Applications to support physiotherapist exercise prescriptions, sputum surveillance and sweat chloride measurements in patients who are prescribed highly effective modulator therapy (HEMT) are also being investigated (2).

Our inaugural multi-site trial, Project Breathe, assessed the feasibility of virtual data collection and remote monitoring in adults with cystic fibrosis. The trial ended in January 2024. Analysis of trial data is ongoing.

Two follow up trials, BRONCH-EX and ACE-CF (3), have received funding from National Institute of Health & Social Care (NIHR) and  LifeArc. These trials are now underway and will investigate the use of machine learning to predict pulmonary exacerbations.

In early 2024 Breathe RM Director, Kirsty Hill, was selected as a Patient Innovator on the prestigious NHS Clinician Entrepreneur Program (CEP).

We are pleased to be collaborating with Health Innovation Wessex to maximise the potential and utility of remote monitoring in clinical practice.
