DEVICE FOR MECHANICALLY INFLUENCING THE LUNG FOR Mucus Removal

摘要

The device for mechanically acting upon the lung for the purposes of releasing mucilage has a support, e.g. in the form of a jacket (10) or a mat, fitted against the back and/or thoracic region of a patient for percussion bodies (15) which are individually and preferably pneumatically actuated in a given order and eliminate the need for the laborious and time-consuming percussion of the patient by hand.
