Dymedso Inc DYMV2X FREQUENCER

The Frequencer provides airway clearance therapy and promotes bronchial drainage vibration in the chest walls. This device is intended to be a component of chest physiotherapy by providing a convenient method of external thorax manipulation.It is intended for patients having respiratory ailments which involve defective mucocillary clearance, as is typical in patients suffering from cystic fibrosis as well as chronic bronchitis, bronchiectasis, cillary dyskinesia syndromes, asthsma, muscular dystrophy, neuromuscular degenerative disorders, post-operative atelectasis and thoracic wall defects. Indications for this form of therapy are described in the Clinical Practice Guidelines for Postural Drainage Therapy of the American Association for Respiratory Care (AARC) published in 1991. This particular device provides a gentler, less painful form of therapy from the traditional "clapping" method of postural drainage therapy, allowing it to be used on patients who cannot be treated by clapping.The Frequencer is suitable for use in all patient-care environments including home health-care.
