Product Overview

Portex - 21-7015


Device Description

A hand-held, non-powered device designed to remove excessive mucus or sputum (phlegm) from the lungs and upper airways using positive pressure airway (PEP) to treat patients affected by acute or chronic lung disease. PEP is created when a patient exhales into the device which creates vibrations in the chest by various means (e.g., an oscillating ball or creating bubbles in a solution within the device) loosening the mucus for expectoration and assisting in lung expansion. Also known as an oscillating positive expiratory pressure (OPEP) device, it is a single-patient device designed for use both in a healthcare facility and in the home. This is a reusable device.
