The Investigators chose to evaluate this device for respiratory physiotherapy in our patients because it is the only one that offers innovative technology, as, unlike other commercially available devices, it does not require the patient to perform forced breathing. Instead, the patient can exhale calmly at tidal volume. This is expected to reduce the patient's effort and improve compliance with treatment. Furthermore, the vibratory signal with small, rapid, and sequential depressions within the airways could be more effective in mobilizing mucus from the airways, preventing collapse.
