1. OBJECTIVES: To compare the mechanical performance of the Flutter VRP1, Shaker, and Acapella devices. METHODS: An experimental platform and a venti-lator, used a flow generator at 5, 10, 15, 20, 26, and 32 L/min, were employed at angles of –30°, 0°, and 30° to evaluate Flutter VRP1 and Shaker, whereas Acapella was adjusted at intermediate.

4. Jun 01,  · These include the manual techniques of percussion and mechanical devices such as the positive expiratory pressure (PEP) device, Flutter® and Acapella®. These physiotherapy interventions are proposed to aid secretion movement to the central airways, from where they can be expectorated by forced expiratory laconricahotchning.butideloliracofesilpaifeited.co by:

5. Acapella ® is connected to the expiratory port of the mechanical ventilator with frequency dial set at minimum for 15 min. The exhaled air from the patient comes out of this expiratory port where the Acapella ® is attached and passes through a pivoting cone and generates airflow vibrations between 0 and 30 Hz. These oscillations were felt and.

6. Mechanical percussor not always available. Time spent looking for device. Cost facilitate mucus movement. 2, Increases endobronchial pressure to avoid air trapping Accelerates expiratory flow to facilitate upward movement of mucus. Acapella. Combines the benefit of both PEP and airway vibrations to mobilize secretions. Easier to.

7. Sep 04,  · Abstract: This article aims to characterize the mechanical behavior of the Acapella ® Blue, a respiratory rehabilitation device designed to aid sputum clearance. In this scope, the present study initially describes in detail the peak-to-peak oscillation amplitude (App) and peak frequency (fp) behavior, as well as positive pressure level (Ppl), in the flow range more comonly found in practice.
