Pneumonia causes more than 900,000 deaths annually among children under the age of 5, accounting for 16% of child mortality worldwide1.
Of these, 99% of deaths occur in developing countries in low-resource settings, typically rural areas with very limited or poor healthcare facilities or with low-skilled health workers.
With its commitment to address the UN’s Sustainable Development Goal 3 to improve health and wellbeing, Royal Philips and Grand Challenges Canada, funded by the Government of Canada, agreed to scale an innovation called ChARM. This is, a monitor which automatically detects respiratory rate in children under the age of 5 in order to improve the diagnosis of childhood pneumonia in low resource countries.
