MEDICAL SCIENCE SUPPORTS RESPIRATORY TECHNOLOGY

REVITIVE Aerosure is based on two wellestablished systems - inspiratory muscle

training (IMT)† effects and oscillatory positive expiratory pressure (OPEP)†.

IMT: This technique is designed to directly affect the functioning of the respiratory muscles which are responsive to training. IMT can benefit people with COPD and other conditions involving respiratory muscle weakness. IMT has demonstrated a number of benefits in a wide range of studies, both in healthy subjects and in people with clinical conditions. Often reported benefits are: Increased inspiratory muscle strength Increased expiratory muscle strength Reduced breathlessness OPEP: Designed to interrupt the expiratory airflow, which results in the airways vibrating. Vibration stimulations applied to the inspiratory system have been shown to: Reduce breathlessness in people with COPD
