Summary

The primary aim of this randomized control trial is to analyze by direct comparison the ZEPHYRx Respiratory Therapy (RT) system and the FDA approved standard of care (SOC) incentive spirometer (IS), used for FDA approved indications at the University of Rochester Medical Center (URMC). This comparison will determine subject preferences in terms of usability and simplicity of each, as well as subject engagement and adherence to the prescribed respiratory therapy routine. Additionally, the study will analyze the effectiveness of the gamified spirometry with regards to spirometry volumes, frequency of usage, and pulmonary complications 30 days post discharge.
