3 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
The purpose of this study is to compare the effect of three airway secretion clearance techniques (chest physical therapy, flutter device and high frequency chest wall oscillation) on decline in pulmonary function over a three year period in patients with cystic fibrosis.
To compare the outcomes of patients treated with the Vest and conventional chest physiotherapy to determine if the Vest provides equivalent therapy
Phase IV interventional study of adults (18 to 55) having a diagnosis of cystic fibrosis (mild, moderate or severe).
