What does the Active Treatment Display mean?
Ti - Breath in
Te - Cough phase
P - Pause
You will hear a 'beep' just before it delivers the
negative pressure, at this point you should
cough.
The number in the top right corner shows the
current
cycle
being
performed
by
Clearway 2. In this example, the device is on
cycle number three out of a total of twenty.
The vertical white line tracks where you are in
the treatment cycle on the screen.
The Clearway 2 works through the programme
of therapy, and when it beeps and 'Treatment
has Ended' appears on the screen, the
treatment is finished. You may need to repeat
the sequence if you feel it is necessary.
