We do duoneb (bronchiodialators) while vesting/cpt for 30 minutes. then if he's got pulmozyme we change out the nebs while he's still vesting. If he's on tobi, we wait until the vest is done with.

With my boys they do their albuterol either when they are doing their albuterol or right after and then my oldest does his Pulmozyene. I know the doctors say to do the albuterol and let that get into their lungs and then do CPT or Vest to help beat it out. I think it is different for each doctor that you talk to.

I was under the impression that CPT had to be done BEFORE pulmozyme; especially when CPT is the vest. The shaking of the vest can make the pulmozyme ineffective which is why you do it afterwards. I used to do it during... for years and then heard I was doing it wrong. This is the order we use it (who knows if it's right or wrong): albuterol before vest (inhaler 2 puffs); Saline with the vest; pulmozyme afterwards (usually at night, but sometimes during the morning treatment). The 2 times we used TOBI was the very last thing we did (never at the same time as vest).
