About The Vest (Equipment)

The Vest® System is an airway clearance device for both children and adults. The Vest uses a process, called High-Frequency Chest Wall Oscillation (HFCWO), creates mini-coughs that dislodge mucus from the bronchial walls, increase mobilization, and move it along toward central airways.
