Cough peak flow with different mechanically assisted coughing approaches under different conditions in patients with neuromuscular disorders

Abstract: Mechanically assisted coughing (MAC) is an airway clearance method in which the thorax/abdomen is compressed in synchronization with mechanical insufflation-exsufflation (MI-E). MAC can be performed with manual assistance at the upper thorax (MAC-UT), lower thorax (MAC-LT), and upper thorax + abdomen (MAC-UT/A). This study aimed to determine the most effective approach under different conditions (air stacking or tracheostomy) in patients with neuromuscular disorders (NMDs). Methods: The study included 34 patie… Show more
