Description

Combines the benefits of both PEP therapy and airway vibrations to mobilize pulmonary secretions and can be used in virtually any position allowing patients to move freely and sit, stand or recline.

It improves clearance of secretions, is easier to tolerate than Chest Physical Therapy (CPT), takes less than half the time of conventional CPT sessions* and facilitates opening of airways in patients with lung diseases with secretory problems  such as COPD, asthma and Cystic Fibrosis. Color-coded units (green for high-flow, blue for low) help customize treatment for each patient based on their clinical needs. You can adjust the acapella® frequency and flow resistance simply by turning an adjustment dial.

Use of acapella® DM & DH Vibratory PEP Therapy System has many benefits, including:

Allows inhalation and exhalation without removing from mouth

Prolongs expiratory airflow to increase removal of secretions

Allows use with mask or mouthpiece attachment

Allows use with inline nebulizer when fitted with tee adapter.

Accommodates virtually any patient’s lung capacity.

Can be used in any position – patient is free to sit, stand or recline
