Intended Use
The Vest
®
Airway Clearance System, Model 205 was developed to
provide effective Airway Clearance Therapy. The system consists of a
disposable garment attached to an Air Pulse Generator that rapidly
inflates and deflates the disposable garment. This causes the chest wall
to be gently compressed and released, which creates airflow within the
lungs. This process moves mucus toward the large airways where it can
be cleared by coughing or suctioning. This type of Airway Clearance
Therapy is referred to as High Frequency Chest Wall Oscillation
(HFCWO).
