Abstract

A positive expiratory pressure device (PEP) including various features. One embodiment includes oscillatory and standard PEP therapy types and ability to switch between these types. This embodiment includes a venturi plug that creates the oscillatory PEP therapy, and is made of microwavable materials. Other embodiments may include one or more of the following features, alone or in any combination: 1) a combination of oscillation PEP therapy and standard PEP therapy, 2) use of microwavable materials, 3) use of an oscillation rocker that produces a venturi effect, 4) use of a flexible tube to create the air pressure oscillation, 5) use of a rotating wheel to open and close the air channel and create air pressure oscillation, 6) use of a variable cross section air channel to generate different air flow resistance for providing multiple of constant pressure therapy, 7) use of a flexible air flow stopper plate with adjustable pivot point to generate different air flow resistance for providing multiple levels of constant pressure therapy, and 8) use of a selection switch that allows the device to switch between standard PEP therapy and oscillatory PEP therapy.
