What is a chest percussor? A chest percussor is a
high speed hand held hammer that when held against the chest replaces
manual percussion. It's more effective than a vest and easy to self
administer. It's less tiring and more effective than manual
percussion.
What is the difference between the vest and
percussor? The vest vibrates the entire chest wall. The vest
product cannot focus on individual lobes and blockage problems that every
patient can feel. The ELECTRO FLO 5000 can be placed on the exact
congested location, and the ELECRO FLO is more powerful than a vest. The
ELECTRO FLO is hand held and convenient to use and travel with as compared
to vests. The power head only weighs 1.5 pounds. Travel case with
percussor is only 6 pounds.
Why is a percussor better than a vest?
Our patients confirm that they get better lung clearance with the
ELECTRO FLO than a vest. This is because the ELECTRO FLO provides crisp powerful karate chops that make
the patient cough to clear the lung. The vest sends mushy air pulses over
long hoses. These long hoses are like pipes on a musical organ. Air pulses
are slow compared to electronic switching in the ELECTRO FLO. The ELECTRO
FLO switches in one millisecond. Vest air pulses can only switch in fifty
milliseconds.
