    What is respiratory therapy?

    It is a set of techniques performed by a respiratory therapist to help clear secretions, improve lung ventilation and make breathing easier. It is used in children and adults, in the clinic, hospital or at home.

    When is it used?

    In conditions with a lot of mucus, such as cystic fibrosis, bronchiectasis or pneumonia; in children with neuromuscular diseases who cannot cough strongly; after chest or abdominal surgery; in COPD; and in pulmonary rehabilitation after serious illness.

    Which techniques does it include?

    Breathing exercises, age-appropriate airway clearance techniques, devices that help expel mucus, cough training, nebulization, home oxygen management and teaching proper inhaler use.

    Does it help babies with bronchiolitis?

    Classic chest physiotherapy is not routinely recommended for bronchiolitis, as it has not shown benefit. What does help is nasal cleaning with saline. The specialist decides when respiratory therapy has a role.
