1. A device for obtaining a physiological parameter regarding an individual specific user'"'"'s disease behaviour pattern, said device comprising:

  • a housing defining a conduit having an inlet and an outlet,at least one sensor network/array for determining said physiological parameter, said at least one sensor being mounted in or on said conduit for generating an electrical signal representing said physiological parameter based on airflow generated by a person blowing in said conduit at said inlet, said at least one sensor network/array having an electrical output for outputting said electrical signal,an analogue-to-digital converter having a converter input and a converter output, said converter input being electrically connected to said electrical output of said sensor,a neural network processor having a first and a second digital input and a first digital output, said first digital input of said neural network processor being electrically connected to said converter output for receiving said signal,a memory unit having a digital input and a digital output, said digital output of said memory unit connected to said second digital input of said neural network processor for transmitting previously stored reference values each representing a health state of a person and identified in a hierarchy of said reference values, said first digital output of said neural network processor being electrically connected to said digital input of said memory unit, andsaid neural network processor establishing on the basis of said reference values a health state of said person and presenting information relating to said health state to said person and storing said health state in said hierarchy, wherein said housing has a mechanical shape or surface in the tube for catching condensate water of exhaled gas, said surface being colder than the exhaled gas, and said surface being formed in such a way that humidity is collected on the surface thereof and wherein at least one sensor for biogases and/or humidity is located on the mechanical shape or surface for catching condensate water of exhaled gas and/or at least one sound and vibration sensor is mounted in said conduit.
