Avg Customer Reviews :

Acapella Flutter Valve is a Respiratory device used for Breathing Therapy that combines the benefits of PEP therapy and airway vibrations to mobilize pulmonary secretions. Manufactured by Portex, 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 liters per minute (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 devices frequency and flow resistance by adjusting a dial.
