Acapella Flutter Valve Vibratory Pep Therapy Description
Acapella Flutter Valve Vibratory Pep Therapy
The Acapella Vibratory PEP Therapy Flutter Valve
Combining the benefits of PEP therapy and airway vibrations to mobilize pulmonary secretions, the Acapella Vibratory PEP Therapy Flutter Valve can be used sitting down, standing or reclined. Another benefit to PEP therapy and a vibratory flutter valve is that it is much easier to tolerate than Chest Physical Therapy (CPT) and takes half the time of a conventional CPT session. Technically speaking, the flutter valve facilitates the opening of airways in patients with lung disease who have secretory problems such as Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), Asthma, or Cystic Fibrosis. The vibratory flutter valve comes with instructions as well on how to operate the device and optimally use it to your benefit.
Two Options with the Acapella Vibratory PEP Therapy Flutter Valve
There are two color-coded options when using the Acapella Vibratory PEP Therapy Flutter Valve, blue and green. The blue model is low-flow, working less than 15 lpm for three seconds, and the green model is high flow, working more than 15 lpm for three seconds. If you are unsure which model you are best suited for, we suggest consulting your doctor. Each flutter valve model is designed based on clinical needs. You can, however, adjust the Acapella PEP therapy device's frequency and flow resistance by adjusting a dial.

The Best Solution for Secretory Issues
By: Clara
(Posted on 4/17/11)Product Rating We are using this product in our clinic and our patients are very satisfied with this product. It combines the benefits of two therapies, PEP therapy and airway vibrations to regulate pulmonary secretions. It is effective in any kind of spatial orientation. Patients have freedom to sit, stand or recline during secretion. It is a far better solution than CPT that takes much time. It creates a passage for people for airways for patients of lung disorders. This is an effective solution for secretory problems like COPD.

therapy flutter valve review
By: Johnson
(Posted on 4/15/11)Product Rating When I noticed that my mucus production is too much, I decided to see a doctor. And he said that I have COPD. With that he told me to buy a therapy flutter valve and he recommended that I get one from your website. So I did. I am very thankful until now that it is very easy to use, it doesn't matter if I;m standing, lying down or sitting I can use it without any problems.

Got a question about this product?
How do I clean and maintain the Acapella Flutter Valve? It has trapped moisture inside from using it with the nebulizer.

According to the manufacture directions you submerge the entire unit in warm, soapy water for 3-4 seconds, then allow the product to dry completely on a towel with the mouth piece down.
