Lungciser Respitory Exerciser

An incentive spirometer is a handheld device that helps your lungs recover after a surgery or lung illness. Your lungs can become weak after prolonged disuse. Using a spirometer helps keep them active and free of fluid.

Breathing slowly with a spirometer allows your lungs to inflate fully. These breaths help break up fluid in the lungs that can lead to pneumonia if it isn’t cleared.

An incentive spirometer is often given to people who’ve recently had surgery, people with lung disease, or people with conditions that fill their lungs with fluid.

1.After surgery:

An incentive spirometer can keep the lungs active during bed rest. Keeping the lungs active with a spirometer is thought to lower the risk of developing complications like atelectasis, pneumonia, bronchospasms, and respiratory failure.

Pneumonia. Incentive spirometry is commonly used to break up fluid that builds up in the lungs in people with pneumonia.

2.Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). COPD is a group of respiratory disorders that are most commonly caused by smoking. There’s no current cure, but quitting smoking, using a spirometer, and following an exercise plan can help manage symptoms.

3.Cystic fibrosis. People with cystic fibrosis might benefit from using an incentive spirometer to clear fluid buildup. A 2015 study found that spirometry has the potential to reduce pressure in the chest cavity and lower the chance of central airway collapse.

4.Other conditions. A doctor may also recommend an incentive spirometer for people with sickle cell anemia, asthma, or atelectasis.
