AIRWAY CLEARANCE TECHNIQUES: The right choice for the right patient – with Wilma Erasmus – via zoom meeting; 23rd November 2024; 8am – 11am South African time

Course objective:

This 3 hour webinar will focus on the features, use, correct application, and evidence of non-pharmacological airway clearance techniques available in respiratory physiotherapy.

Mucus secretion in the lungs is a natural process that protects the airway from inhaled insoluble particle accumulation by capture and removal via mucociliary escalation.

The evolving application of mechanical airway clearance devices i.e. oscillating positive expiratory pressure (OPEP), incentive spirometers, plus different breathing techniques etc. will be covered.

If you want to ensure that you choose the right airway clearance technique/device for the right patient then this new course is not to be missed.
