The SmartVest SV2100 is a high-frequency chest wall oscillation (HFCWO) device. The SmartVest SV2100 airway clearance system is designed to deliver high-frequency chest oscillation to promote airway clearance and improve bronchial drainage. HFCWO has been proven to be an effective therapy for a wide range of conditions. And when patients use the simple, comfortable SmartVest HFCWO system as intended, the changes can be life-transforming. The portable air-pulse generator offers unique and patented features expressly designed to enhance ergonomic comfort and lifestyle convenience, helping patients get better by making it easier and more efficient to do therapy consistently. The air pulse generator on the SmartVest creates air pulses that are transmitted to the chest via the connection hose and vest. The generator is designed to operate in either the upright or horizontal position.
The SmartVest SV2100 System for inpatient HFCWO
Ridding a hospital patient’s lungs of retained mucus is critical to rapid and long-term recovery. That’s especially true when the patient is in a post-surgical or intensive care unit, or was admitted for a lung infection brought on by compromised airway clearance.
Today, hospitalists and directors of respiratory care increasingly value high frequency chest wall oscillation (HFCWO), also known as high frequency chest compression (HFCC), as their therapy of choice for treating compromised airway clearance in acute care settings. Once chest physiotherapy (CPT) was the standard of care for external chest manipulation. Today HFCWO — owing to its therapeutic consistency and effectiveness, plus potential cost advantages — routinely complements, and even supplants, manual CPT for inpatient treatment of impaired airway clearance.
Electromed, Inc., the pioneer of truly portable in-home HFCWO, provides an inpatient system expressly designed to help hospital staffs speed patient recovery by providing therapeutically effective, cost-effective therapy. And when patients with chronically impaired airway clearance are safe for discharge, there’s an easy transition to the SmartVest System for in-home treatment.
