Smiths Medical DM with Mouth Piece acapella Blue

DM with Mouth Piece acapella Blue

The acapella DM with mouthpiece is an airway therapy device that combines PEP therapy and airway vibrations to help mobilize pulmonary secretions. It fits respiratory therapy workflows where patients may need treatment in different positions, since it can be used in virtually any spatial orientation and allows inhalation and exhalation without removing the device from the mouth. This blue model includes an inspiratory valve, an expiratory resistance dial, and 22mm OD ambient and patient ends.
