SmartVest ® Airway Clearance System What is HFCWO?
What is High Frequency Chest Wall Oscillation (HFCWO)?
High Frequency Chest Wall Oscillation (HFCWO) has been an effective form of
airway clearance therapy for more than 40 years. HFCWO, administered by the
patented SmartVest ®, creates a “squeeze and release” action around the chest
and torso from 5-20 times per second. The SmartVest ® inflates and delivers
vigorous, yet comfortable, air pulses to the body through a single-hose powered
by a programmable air pulse generator. The rapid squeeze and release action
of an HFCWO treatment simulates repetitive “mini-coughs,” which have been
reported to effectively
• Shear mucus away from the walls of a lung’s airways.1
• Reduce the viscosity of the secretions.2
• Propel the mucus toward the larger airways where it can be expectorated
or suctioned more easily.1, 2

compressions compared to conventional chest physiotherapy. Pediatr Pulmonol 1996; Suppl 13: A358.
