Summary

This study aims to examine the tolerance, feasibility, and physiological effects in airway clearance by using a novel non-invasive oscillating transducer device (NIOD, FrequencerTM) in critically ill children. The project is two years long with two separate stages of investigation. This study specifically examines different frequencies of NIOD to find the best frequency on patients outcomes.

Conditions

  • Respiratory Insufficiency

Interventions

DEVICE

NIOD Frequencer

NIOD will be implemented on four different parts of the chest walls, 3 minutes for each part and 12 minutes in total per each session. Left and right front and posterior chest walls will be stimulated (Figure1), particularly, on the anterior chest, intercostal spaces 1-2 above nipple line and lateral side of the midclavicular line 1-2 below intercostal spaces. The intensity of the NIOD can be selected between 80-100%, which is prespecified on the machine.
