Applied chest-wall vibration therapy for patients with obstructive lung disease
Patients with chronic lung disease (such as emphysema and chronic bronchitis) have ventilatory difficulties (i.e. getting adequate tidal volume), due to lung compliance and airflow resistance caused by mucus build-up in the lung airways. For these patients, high-frequency chest-compression therapy (HFCCT) is gaining acceptance (as an alternative to conventional physical chest physiotherapy). Fo...
متن کاملConventional chest physical therapy for obstructive lung disease.
Chest physical therapy (CPT) is a widely used intervention for patients with airway diseases. The main goal is to facilitate secretion transport and thereby decrease secretion retention in the airways. Historically, conventional CPT has consisted of a combination of forced expirations (directed cough or huff), postural drainage, percussion, and/or shaking. CPT improves mucus transport, but it i...

متن کاملBronchopulmonary hygiene physical therapy for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and bronchiectasis.
BACKGROUND Bronchopulmonary hygiene physical therapy is a form of chest physical therapy including chest percussion and postural drainage to remove lung secretions. These are applied commonly to patients with both acute and chronic airway diseases. Despite controversies in the literature regarding its efficacy, it remains in use in a variety of clinical settings. The various forms of this thera...
متن کاملA pilot study of the impact of high-frequency chest wall oscillation in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients with mucus hypersecretion
INTRODUCTION Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients with mucus hypersecretion tend to demonstrate increased frequency of infective exacerbations and a steeper slope of decline in lung function. Enhanced mucociliary clearance with high-frequency chest wall oscillation (HFCWO) devices previously used in cystic fibrosis and bronchiectasis patients may offer the opportunity for commu...
