Airway clearance percussor for relieving congestion in large and small animals with acute and chronic respiratory conditions.
Product Information:
The VibraVM Pro is a new acoustic airway clearance percussor for relieving congestion in horses with acute and chronic respiratory conditions.
Horses with certain lung conditions accumulate secretions that harbor bacteria, inflammatory cells and mediators resulting in recurring infections, inflammation and destruction of the lung. Natural mechanisms and medications are often inadequate with persistent and recurring airway congestion.
In humans, chest physiotherapy is an important part of the standard of care for the treatment and removal of secretions which in turn, promotes healing. To date, chest physiotherapy has not been adopted in the treatment of respiratory conditions in horses because there was no practical method of delivery, until now!
The VibraVMTM Pro uses sound waves introduced through the nose to breakup accumulations of harmful secretions in the respiratory system for easy expulsion. As a bonus, a certain type of sound produced relaxes constricted airways.
The VibraVM Pro has three modes of operation: Auto, Manual and Massage.
In Manual mode, you press the slider up for higher frequencies, and down to lower the frequency. You can stay in Manual mode to stay at the same four tone frequency series indefinitely. Or you can use Manual mode to set a starting frequency for the Auto mode. Auto mode will increase the frequency series every 20 seconds. You can switch back and forth between Manual and Auto mode as much as you like. So you could raise or lower the frequency in Manual, then switch to Auto and progress upward from there. When in Auto mode, there is a cumulative timer for 7 minutes, which is counting anytime the unit is in Auto mode. The Pro unit gives you much more flexibility and goes to higher frequencies than the standard model. Having higher frequencies will be more effective for cats and dogs or other smaller animals. We created the Pro model at the request of our staff veterinarian. He observed that as he was treating an animal it would respond well at a given frequency. He wanted to be able to continue to treat the animal at that frequency for more time, rather than automatically increasing the frequency as the standard model does. With the VibraVM Pro™ he can now switch to manual mode at the point he observes the good response, for a more precise and optimal treatment. Or he can switch to manual mode, lower the frequency slightly, and then switch back to Auto to move up through the good response frequencies again. He found he could shorten the treatment time to around four minutes using the VibraVM Pro.
The VibraVMTM Pro is a result of six years of research, development, and testing. We are very pleased for this opportunity to introduce this important and exciting technology for the care of your horse.
