Zusammenfassung:	ADHERENCE-TRACKING AND MONITORING DEVICE FOR METERED-DOSE The present subject matter describes an adherence-monitoring and tracking device (100, 400) for capturing usage of a metered dose inhaler (MDI). The device (100, 400) comprises an enclosure for enclosing a metered dose inhaler (MDI), and an electro-mechanical system forming a part of enclosure to sense and log the operation of the MDI. The electro-mechanical system comprises at-least one transducer to capture one or more parameters pertaining to an operation of the MDI by the user. A microcontroller processes said captured parameters, and an output-unit renders data pertaining to operation of the MDI.
