Cystic Fibrosis
Comparison of Airway Clearance Therapy in Cystic Fibrosis Using the Same VEST Therapy Device But With Different Settings
Our primary hypothesis is that airway clearance therapy with sine waveform HFCWO using higher inflation pressures combined with both low and high oscillator frequencies will result in greater sputum production compared to sine…
