Cough Assist A cough assist is a respiratory therapy device that combines multiple therapies of assisted cough and lung expansion along with high-frequency oscillation to break up and remove mucus from the lungs. The device provides a non-invasive solution to airway clearance to remove mucus that causes infection, inflammation, and respiratory failure. Therapy can be personalized to provide the most effective therapy for each individual’s respiratory condition.
