Chest care
Chest care causes vibration and makes sputum in trachea and lung easily removed. Then the removed sputum could be drain out by postural drainage and gravity.
Timing
- About 3 - 4 time everyday or every 2 hours
- Everyday after awake, before breakfast or 1 - 2 hours post prandial to prevent patients from vomiting
- Before sleep
- After chest therapy
- It takes 10 - 15 minutes to proceed though it could vary depending on the individual condition and endurance of the young patient. s
