ValleySense’s five-second cough check
An Arizona-focused symptom and cough screening tool that gives patients a next-step prompt and clinicians a briefing about possible valley fever testing.

- People with persistent coughs in Arizona
- Worth noticing
- The page says model outputs can shift likelihood, but an auditable rules engine—not the models—sets testing recommendations.
Field notes
The patient flow starts with warning signs, then asks about symptoms, dust exposure, and risk factors before a five-second cough recording; the page says the clip is checked and deleted. Patients can choose to save an ID, PIN, and QR code for a clinician, who can add exam findings, labs, or chest X-ray information and receive a PDF briefing. The displayed 94.8% result is labeled a demo, and the extract does not establish clinical validation.
