Software Reliability a Key Concern During 2021, Haystack Analytics Review Finds

Haystack Analytics

Engineering productivity company Haystack Analytics has today published a review 1 into software development industry performance in 2021. The review investigated benchmarks and common trends between multiple industry reports, finding that software development is becoming an increasingly competitive field with the proportion of “high” and “elite” performing teams growing, whilst the proportion of “low” performing teams has dropped. The report also found growing concern about software reliability. One study conducted jointly by Haystack Analytics and Survation found that 57% of software engineers agreed “to a great extent” or “to a moderate extent” with the phrase "Software reliability at my workplace concerns me”. The review also points to another report produced by Google’s DORA team showing that even among engineering teams considered to be “elite” performers, only 10% fully implemented the Site Reliability Engineering practices they investigated. As more of our day-to-day lives become dependent on technology and as software plays a growing role in critical national infrastructure, it is important to understand how such challenges can be addressed. The report’s author, computer scientist Junade Ali, said: “The results are clear - psychological safety is paramount to preventing burnout, delivering better business outcomes and improving software reliability. The ability to balance the competing forces of risk and reward are an essential skill in engineering, empowering engineers to use their professional judgement with psychological safety is vital to addressing the issues we currently face in software reliability. For businesses to grow, engineers must be able to take calculated risks, using their professional judgement. No risk, no reward.” The review found that multiple studies and industry best practice have converged on the idea that psychological safety is essential to addressing issues of software reliability. The review highlighted research that found that low performing teams were 2.2 times more likely to have a culture that discourages risk than their high performing counterparts. Another study found that teams which excel at modern operational practices were also 1.8 times more likely to report better business outcomes. Ali continued: “Messengers should not fear getting shot and success through calculated risks should be rewarded. Feedback should be taken, not just given. Defensive cultures, where leaders cannot admit to their mistakes or the limits of their knowledge, should serve as a red flag to engineers going through the recruitment process. Strong engineering leaders have the humility to accept their own humanity.” 1 EngProd 2021: A Review on the State of Developer Productivity. About Haystack Analytics Haystack was founded in 2020 by Julian Colin and Kan Yilmaz for tech teams to learn more about roadblocks to their work, improve productivity and importantly identify burnout issues with developers.

BreatheSuite Receives FDA Clearance for Over-the-Counter Device to Turn Regular Metered-Dose Inhalers into Smart Inhalers

BreatheSuite

BreatheSuite Inc., a Canadian connected respiratory health company, today announced that it has received 510(K) clearance from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for its BreatheSuite Metered-Dose Inhaler (MDI) V1 device. Approved for both prescription and over-the-counter use, the BreatheSuite device turns existing MDIs into smart inhalers by automatically and objectively monitoring and providing feedback on inhaler adherence and technique for people with asthma and COPD. Tens of millions of Americans currently use MDIs. Techniques such as shaking the MDI 10-15 times, as well as breath timing and positioning, can greatly impact the amount of medication that reaches the lungs. For every 100 people who use an inhaler, 90 are using it incorrectly; 66 are not adherent to the medication as prescribed (skipping doses, etc.). Inhaler misuse makes up about $5- $7 billion of the approximately $25 billion spent on inhalers annually. The BreatheSuite System – composed of a disposable, battery-powered, portable BreatheSuite MDI add-on device and a mobile application based on behavior change strategies – is designed to work with an MDI by attaching to the top of the canister of the patient’s inhaler. The device and mobile app work together to evaluate and “score” a person’s inhaler technique and usage patterns, storing results in the cloud so the person can track and use this information to improve how they use their inhaler. With consent, this information can also be remotely monitored by the person’s healthcare team to promote customizable care plans. By promoting more effective inhaler use and remote patient monitoring (RPM), BreatheSuite aims to improve quality of care and health outcomes while reducing the economic burden associated with these conditions. Medical costs for chronic COPD were estimated to reach $49 billion in 2020, and the annual economic cost of asthma from 2008-2013 was more than $81.9 billion – with medical costs alone accounting for $50.3 billion. “We are extremely excited to have obtained FDA clearance, which is a critical step in achieving our vision of improving the lives of respiratory patients worldwide,” said Brett Vokey, Founder and CEO of BreatheSuite. “The COVID-19 pandemic has underscored that now is the time for remote patient monitoring to take a front seat in providing better, more transparent care for all people with asthma or COPD. With FDA clearance, we are poised to become a leader in providing actionable insights to people with asthma or COPD across the United States.” “By having a real-time way to digitally monitor and provide feedback to patients, we hope to enhance healthcare outcomes,” said Dr. Meshari F. Alwashmi, Chief Scientific Officer, BreatheSuite. “Furthermore, having an objective measure of adherence and technique from each user with asthma and COPD will advance the sphere of knowledge regarding the effectiveness of inhaled medications.” The BreatheSuite device does not interfere with regular MDI usage and can be removed and reattached to a new inhaler with ease. The device is compatible with 90% of MDIs on the market, including those manufactured by GlaxoSmithKline (GSK), Teva and Prasco. In addition to FDA clearance, which is a first for a Newfoundland and Labrador-based company, the BreatheSuite device has also been cleared for sale in Canada. About BreatheSuite BreatheSuite is a Canadian connected health company founded in 2018 to help people with chronic respiratory conditions live longer, healthier lives. The BreatheSuite MDI device is designed to track and train proper inhaler usage, while the BreatheSuite App applies behavior change tactics to improve adherence, and tips on how to improve inhaler technique. BreatheSuite works with leading partners across North America to deliver better care to people with chronic respiratory conditions.
