About
Vitasora (formerly Respiri) has evolved from a respiratory connect care company into a full-service Connected Care Management organisation.
The evolution of connected care
Our transformation began with the FDA-approved wheezo© device, which enabled the launch of Respiri into the U.S. market via distribution partners.
Building on this foundation and through strategic acquisitions, we have accelerated our expansion into a comprehensive, evidence-based, data-driven Care Management model that supports chronic disease management across multiple conditions.
Seamless care management
Our bespoke Care Management model enables our healthcare organisations to extend care beyond their clinics.
We ensure seamless and effective execution of care management programs through:
- multi-device integration
- virtual clinical support
- AI-enhanced decision-making
By integrating advanced remote monitoring devices, our clinical expertise and predictive analytics:
We enhance patient engagement and compliance, and improve overall health outcomes.
Our name reflects our purpose
Vita (Latin for ‘Life’)
represents our commitment to improving and sustaining health.
Sora (Japanese for ‘Sky’)
symbolises limitless possibilities and our vision to elevate patient care beyond traditional boundaries.
Increased capacity for optimal care
By partnering with healthcare providers, payers, and ACOs, Vitasora delivers scalable, tailored solutions that enhance patient outcomes, reduce costs, and drive sustainable value-based Care Beyond the Clinic.
