High-frequency chestwall oscillation in rehabilitation of patients with COPD

Abstract

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is a preventable and treatable disease. It is characterized by persistent airflow limitation that is usually progressive and associated with enhanced chronic inflammatory response in the airways and the lung to noxious particles or gases. Although COPD affects the lungs, it also results in significant systemic disorders and exacerbates comorbidities [1].
