G5® percussors serve as adjuncts to therapists in performing pulmonary drainage procedures, which aid in lung ventilation and pulmonary hygiene by helping to remove accumulated secretions that cause increased airway obstruction, resistance and infection.
G5® are the only percussors which provide Directional-Stroking® and Directional Percussion™ in order to help to dislodge and liquefy viscous secretions, and are the only percussion products that offer directional control in the movement of secretions toward the upper airway.
Directional control is a primary consideration, since transient Hypoxia and Dyspnea can be caused by stagnated secretions in the major bronchi.
