ELECTROVEST: Electro-Stimulation Vibratory Vest for Pulmonary Rehabilitation in Patients With Chronic Respiratory Diseases
NCT ID: NCT07175012 Phase: NA Status: COMPLETED Enrollment: 21 Completion: 2025-05-20
Conditions
COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease), Cystic Fibrosis (CF), Bronchiectasis Adult, Asthma Bronchiale
Interventions
ELECTROVEST, The Vest® Model 105
Summary
This study will evaluate the effectiveness, safety, and tolerability of a novel wearable device, the ELECTROVEST, designed to improve airway clearance in patients with chronic respiratory diseases. The ELECTROVEST will integrate high-frequency chest wall oscillation (HFCWO) with surface neuromuscular electrostimulation. This crossover clinical trial will compare the performance of the ELECTROVEST with a standard HFCWO vest (The Vest®) in adult patients. Primary outcomes will include sputum expectoration and patient-reported comfort. The study will aim to determine whether this new system can optimize bronchial hygiene.
Primary Outcome
Volume of Expectorated Sputum
