BACKGROUND Acute bronchiolitis treatment in children and infants is largely supportive, but chest physiotherapy is routinely performed in some countries. In France, national guidelines recommend a specific type of physiotherapy combining the increased exhalation technique (IET) and assisted cough (AC). Our objective was to evaluate the efficacy of chest physiotherapy (IET + AC) in previously he...
Patients with chronic lung disease (such as emphysema and chronic bronchitis) have ventilatory difficulties (i.e. getting adequate tidal volume), due to lung compliance and airflow resistance caused by mucus build-up in the lung airways. For these patients, high-frequency chest-compression therapy (HFCCT) is gaining acceptance (as an alternative to conventional physical chest physiotherapy). Fo...
We studied the effects of two chest physiotherapy regimens on whole lung and regional tracheobronchial clearance (TBC) in ten patients with cystic fibrosis. The regimens were given on two separate days and consisted of 20 min of (1) postural drainage and the forced expiration technique (PD + FET), and (2) positive expiratory pressure (PEP-mask) and FET (PEP + FET). A third day served as control...
Long-term treatment of chronic bronchitis with chest physiotherapy with or without positive expiratory pressure (PEP) by mask was studied in 43 patients randomly allocated to PEP treatment (PEP group, 20 patients) and conventional chest physiotherapy (control group, 23 patients). After instruction, the treatments were self-administered twice daily for 12 months (34 patients) and 5 months (9 pat...
Nonpharmacologic airway clearance techniques are used to reduce the sequelae of obstructive secretions. We systematically reviewed comparative studies of nonpharmacologic interventions that health professionals can employ to achieve mucus clearance in hospitalized or postoperative patients without cystic fibrosis, over the age of 12 months. We searched MEDLINE and other databases from 1990 to 2...

OBJECTIVES To evaluate the clinical efficacy and feasibility of an expiratory muscle training (EMT) device (Respilift) applied to patients recovering from recent open cardiothoracic surgery (CTS). DESIGN Prospective, double-blind, 14-day randomised-controlled trial. PARTICIPANTS AND SETTING A total of 60 inpatients recovering from recent CTS and early admitted to a pulmonary rehabilitation ...
