Airway Clearance at Home with IPV® Therapy

Effective respiratory treatment — without the hospital visit.

Sentec IPV® Therapy can help patients spend less time in the hospital,¹ delivering effective lung recruitment and airway clearance in the comfort of home.

What does IPV therapy do?

With each pulse delivered with IPV therapy, four distinct flow characteristics combine to create a uniquely effective treatment for patients. IPV therapy can:

Recruit collapsed alveoli in atelectatic areas of the lungs

Relieve hyperinflation and air trapping

Enable proactive care strategies at home¹
