2.4 Description of function
The PARI PEP S System is used in PEP therapy. It can be
used alone (PEP therapy) or together with a nebuliser and a
compressor (combination therapy).
PEP therapy
In PEP therapy, expiratory resistance when exhaling is in-
creased by the different sizes of the holes in the PARI PEP S
System (the smaller the hole, the greater the resistance). The
increased expiratory resistance has the effect of stabilising the
airways and stimulating mucus dissolution.
The hole size must be determined individually for each patient
by a healthcare professional
Combination therapy
The PARI PEP S System can be used together with a
nebuliser and a compressor instead of the mouthpiece (with
exhalation valve) or a mask. In this case, PEP therapy is also
performed as the patient breathes out during the nebuliser
treatment.
