Acapella Device
This program is recommended for patients who have been diagnosed with
lung conditions that cause increased mucus production, including
bronchiectasis, mycobacterium infections, cystic fibrosis, exacerbation
of chronic bronchitis, and other conditions resulting in abnormal CT
scans. Patients are treated with advanced secretion clearance
techniques, and are also taught a self-treatment approach designed to
improve their pulmonary hygiene. Our therapists provide individualized
instruction in the techniques best suited to help each patient remove
lung secretions and impacted mucus, thereby helping to reduce
uncontrolled coughing and improve quality of life. The ultimate goal of
the secretion clearance program is to control lung congestion and reduce
the incidence of respiratory infections in susceptible patients.
