Cough Assist & High Frequency Chest Wall Oscillation
For people with chronic respiratory conditions such as cystic fibrosis, bronchiectasis, or neuromuscular disorders, airway clearance therapy helps remove mucus from the airways, reduce infection risk, and improve breathing comfort.
What is Cough Assist?
Cough Assist is a therapy that supports patients who have difficulty coughing on their own. It delivers positive pressure followed by a rapid pressure drop to simulate a natural cough and help clear mucus.
Benefits of Cough Assist
- Improves airway clearance
- Helps reduce the risk of lung infections
- Supports better lung function
- Improves daily comfort and quality of life
What is High Frequency Chest Wall Oscillation?
High Frequency Chest Wall Oscillation (HFCWO) uses an external device to deliver gentle, high-frequency vibrations to the chest wall. These vibrations loosen mucus, making it easier to cough out and clear the airways.
Benefits of HFCWO
Combining Cough Assist and HFCWO
Using Cough Assist and HFCWO together may provide stronger airway clearance support for patients with chronic respiratory conditions. This combined approach can help loosen mucus and support effective removal from the lungs.
