Device Details
The AffloVest® Generation 6 is a wearable airway clearance system intended to promote bronchial drainage and promotes mucus clearance through high-frequency chest wall oscillation therapy. The system consists of a vest containing oscillation modules and a portable controller that powers and manages treatment settings. Because the technology is self-contained within the vest, patients can remain active during therapy without being connected to bulky equipment. The generation 6 design focuses on improving comfort, usability, and treatment engagement while maintaining the benefits of HFCWO therapy.
