A therapy is typically a 10-minute session with the goal of expanding
the airways and moving secretions from the lower lobes to the upper
airways so they can be coughed out.
The 10-minute therapy is composed of 2.5 minutes of PEP (positive
expiratory pressure), 2.5 minutes of OSC (high frequency oscillation),
and these two therapies are repeated for the same amount of time to
complete the 10-minute session.
Note: The Aerogen® Solo can only be run with saline while using it with
BiWaze® Clear.

Your clinical team may have enabled ‘allow user adjustments’ on your
system which allows changes to be made to the programmed therapy
profiles while the device is locked. If enabled, therapy pressure can be
adjusted up to 5 cmH20 per phase, depending on what your clinical
team configured. When a therapy is adjusted, the profile will reset to the
original saved therapy profile settings after the therapy is run.
If the ability to adjust pressure is
enabled, the pen icon will be visible.
Press the pen icon to open the thera-
py settings.
From the therapy settings screen you
can edit the therapy phases in the
therapy line. Press on a phase you
want to edit.
The edit phase settings box will
appear and you can change pressure
based upon what has been enabled
by your clinician. Press the arrow to
edit the pressure and press the green
check mark to save the updated
pressure.
