The Aerobika® Oscillating Positive Expiratory Pressure (OPEP) Device is a handheld, drug-free respiratory therapy tool designed to improve mucus clearance and lung function in patients with chronic respiratory conditions. By generating pressure oscillations during exhalation, it helps open collapsed or narrowed airways while loosening mucus, moving it into the upper airways for easier expectoration.
The device can be used as standalone therapy or combined with nebulized medication via its universal 22 mm adapter, making it a versatile solution for both home and clinical care.
Key Benefits
Drug-Free Mucus Clearance – Uses oscillating positive expiratory pressure to open airways and mobilize mucus.
Improves Breathing & Ventilation – Clinically shown to enhance ventilation, reduce COPD exacerbations, and lower hospital readmission rates.
Supports Multiple Conditions – Effective for COPD, bronchiectasis, and cystic fibrosis patients.
Boosts Nebulized Treatments – Can be used with a nebulizer (22 mm adapter) to increase deposition of inhaled therapies.
Adjustable Resistance – Features a resistance dial to tailor therapy intensity to patient needs.
Clinically Proven & Cost-Effective – Studies demonstrate reduced reliance on corticosteroids/antibiotics and shorter hospital stays.
Clinical Use
For adults and children able to exhale at least 10 L/min for 3–4 seconds, including those with:
COPD and chronic bronchitis
Bronchiectasis
Cystic fibrosis
Asthma
Therapy Role
Promotes airway clearance and reduces mucus plugging
Enhances effectiveness of inhaled medications
Supports long-term respiratory health in chronic lung disease
