How to Set Up Your HomeMed Smart Peak Flow Monitor
Managing asthma is easier when you can track what’s really going on with your symptoms — and that’s exactly what the Smart Peak Flow Monitor is designed to do.
This small, lightweight device connects to your smartphone and measures your peak expiratory flow — how fast you can blow air out of your lungs. It then tracks your readings over time, giving you and your doctor a clear picture of your asthma.
Here’s how to set it up, start using it, and get the most out of your new asthma tool.
What is the Smart Peak Flow Monitor?
The Smart Peak Flow is a digital asthma management tool that replaces traditional peak flow meters with something smarter, easier, and more accurate.
It uses the Smart Asthma app to record every blow instantly, automatically generating charts, explanations, and reports you can share with your doctor.
Unlike old-school meters, Smart Peak Flow:
-
Pairs with your phone via Bluetooth (no cables or batteries needed)
-
Logs and stores all your readings automatically
-
Predicts asthma trends — helping you prepare for flare-ups alongside your asthma management plan and care team.
It’s small enough to fit in your pocket but powerful enough to transform how you manage your asthma.
Before you begin: Use in a well-lit area
The Smart Peak Flow has a small window on top that uses light to operate.
✅ Use it in a well-lit room — natural daylight or a bright lamp is perfect.
✅ It doesn’t need to be direct sunlight, but a dark room won’t work.
✅ Required brightness is 100 lux or more (enough to read comfortably).
How to use your Smart Peak Flow Monitor
Using your Smart Peak Flow takes just a few minutes a day. Here’s the simple 4-step process:
1. Download the app
-
Android: Smart Asthma App on Google Play
Open the app, create an account, and follow the setup prompts (add your age, height, and asthma plan if you have one).
2. Connect your device
-
Attach the reader to the handle — it clicks securely into place.
-
Press the button on the handle to turn the device on.
-
Open the app — it will pair via Bluetooth automatically.
(Tip: Make sure your phone’s Bluetooth is switched on before starting.)
3. Take your reading
-
Sit or stand up straight.
-
Attach the mouthpiece.
-
Take a deep breath in, then blow out fast and hard into the device.
The app will instantly display your reading. For the most accurate results, blow three times in a row — the app will automatically save your best score.
4. Track & manage
Your readings are logged automatically. The app:
-
Draws charts and graphs for you to see trends.
-
Adds colour zones (green, yellow, red) to match your asthma action plan.
-
Sends daily reminders to take your readings and medication.
Record and share your results easily
No paper. No handwriting. No lost charts.
Every reading you take is automatically stored in your Smart Asthma app. You can:
-
Share results easily with your doctor, nurse, or asthma specialist.
-
Export reports to email ahead of appointments.
-
Use the app to spot triggers and track how well treatments are working.
Smart features you’ll love
The Smart Peak Flow isn’t just a digital meter — it’s an asthma management assistant in your pocket.
✅ Reports with explanations – every chart includes easy-to-understand notes.
✅ Predicts your asthma – based on your measurements, the app can forecast flare-ups and help you prepare.
✅ Daily reminders – no more forgetting to test or missing medication doses.
Clinical studies (like this one) show Smart Peak Flow is highly accurate in predicting what your peak flow will be tomorrow, giving you time to act before asthma gets worse.
Cleaning and care
Keep your Smart Peak Flow in top shape:
-
Remove the mouthpiece and rinse weekly in warm water (do not submerge it).
-
Wipe the handle with a dry cloth.
-
Store in its case or pouch when not in use.
