1: Introduction
The IPV® 1 system is intended for patients needing an airway clearance therapy for
mobilization of secretions, lung expansion therapy, or the treatment and prevention of
pulmonary atelectasis.
The IPV® 1 system is designed specifically for non-continuous institutional/hospital
use to provide airway clearance and lung recruitment therapy. The system comprises
a controller unit and breathing circuit called a Phasitron® 5. This circuit features a
unique sliding venturi mechanism that provides a lung protective strategy while
delivering high-frequency pulses, augmenting diffusive gas exchange throughout the
lungs, promoting airway clearance and lung expansion.
