Airway Clearance Therapy
The Vibralung Acoustical Percussor applies vibratory sound waves, during both inspiration and exhalation, over a wide range of frequencies from 5 to 1,200 Hz to vibrate the column of gas in the tracheobronchial tract. As a result, the airways are vibrated by sympathetic resonance and mucus is thereby loosened and separated throughout the airways to promote safe, effective and gentle ACT unlike any alternative. The wide range of applied intrapulmonary sound wave frequencies assure that airways of all sizes, in patients of all sizes, are effectively vibrated. The Vibralung can be used as either sole therapy, or adjunct therapy, depending upon the patient’s needs and response. It is lightweight, battery-powered and portable so it can go wherever the patient goes.
