Brief Summary:
The purpose of this study is to show that one form of mechanical airway clearance techniques High Frequency Chest Wall Oscillation HFCWOusing a pneumatic vest will diminish exacerbations of COPD which will improve respiratory health status
Detailed Description:
Approximately 60 to 70 of people with COPD have chronic cough and phlegm the cardinal symptoms of chronic bronchitis or chronic mucus hypersecretion CMH Once thought to be a relatively benign condition recent evidence shows that CMH in patients with established COPD is associated with greater decline in lung function more frequent respiratory infections more frequent exacerbations and increased mortalityUsing mechanical airway clearance techniques The Vest will diminish exacerbations of COPD which will improve respiratory health status
Comparison Patients randomly assigned to the vest will have fewer exacerbations of COPDbetter quality of life and less health care use compared to patients assigned to a sham vest
