Breathe Again: An Effective Therapy for Patients with Bronchiectasis

Bronchiectasis is a condition where the lungs’ airways are abnormally stretched and scarred, resulting in mucus buildup. Symptoms can include recurring cough, chest congestion, coughing up yellow or green mucus, and recurrent flare-ups/infections. Keeping airways clear and clearing the mucus out is important to prevent bacteria from building up, and lung infections from forming. The Vest® Airway Clearance System from Hillrom is designed for both children and adults who have a hard time effectively clearing excess mucus. Using The Vest® System therapy to remove lung secretions can reduce the risk of hospitalizations by 65% and flare-ups by 66%*. Pulmonologist Dr. Eric Seifer discusses the common signs and symptoms, and the importance of early diagnosis and treatment. Plus, we’ll meet Patti who found success with The Vest® System saying, “It’s a dream come true to breathe again.”

Through High Frequency Chest Wall Oscillation technology, The Vest® Airway Clearance System dislodges mucus from the bronchial walls, and mobilizes secretions and mucus from the smaller to larger airways where it can be cleared by coughing or suctioning.

An excellent video which gave this lady, and many others no doubt, their lives back! I have a friend who has Bronchiectasis, and even though we live here in England, she’s that bad that I’m sure this is well worth looking in to!
Very many thanks for an amazing video!
