Summary

The present study will aim to find out whether a home treatment in people with bronchiectasis consisting of a single daily session to facilitate expectoration (combining nebulization of hypertonic saline (HS) at 6% followed by airway clearance techniques) is at least as effective as performing two sessions per day following the same process in each of the sessions, during a period of 6 months.

Conditions

Interventions

OTHER

Hypertonic saline at 6%

Participants will start the sessions by inhaling a short-acting bronchodilator or an anticholinergic to avoid the presence of bronchospasm during nebulisation. The hypertonic solution (at 6%) will be administered through the Turbo Boy nebuliser (Pari®). The intervention will take place at home.

OTHER

Airway clearance techniques (oscillating positive expiratory pressure therapy)

Following nebulisation, participants will perform airway clearance techniques using an oscillating positive expiratory pressure device for at least 15 minutes. The intervention will take place at home
