Effects of SIMEOX on Airway Clearance in Cystic Fibrosis

Autogenic drainage is an airway clearance technique characterised by breathing control using expiratory airflow to mobilise secretions from smaller to larger airways. The secretions will be collected during the physiotherapy session and during the 24 hours following the session.

SIMEOX is a device generating a succession of gentle depression at the mouth during the expiratory phase associated with autogenic drainage.
