Question About The Respirtech Incourage Vest??

[DEES4]

My 4 year old son has the Respirtech Incourage System. I was wondering what pressure others set theirs at? I set my sons at 80%. The guy at Respirtech told me most children his age can tolerate 80% and that the higher the pressure setting the better the treatment. I was just wondering what others do? Thanks

My son, now aged three, started the Respirtech at about 18 months. He started at 50% but then we talked to Dr Warwick and he said the higher the better. We did 90% for a bit but he seemed uncomfortable with that. So we use 80% now for two half hour sessions daily.

Damiens is set at 50% we push quick start and let it roll. We do it 2x daily for 30 minutes.

We started Ellie off at 60%, and she tolerated it so well that I've been increasing it over the past two months. I set a multi-step program that ranges from 80% to 100%, with the majority of her 40 minute session being at 90%. The Respirtech trainer mentioned the same thing about higher pressures being more effective, but also that some children (and even adults) could not tolerate higher pressures. It really doesn't seem to bother Ellie in the slightest (she LOVES her vest treatments, I think because the vest = TV time!), so that's why I've increased her settings. I absolutely love the vest too, by the way! I was so excited the day I put it on my older daughter (without CF) and she coughed like crazy. She had been sick with a phlegmy cough and wanted to give it a try, and she coughed the whole time it was on her! Ellie has never coughed, with manual CPT or the vest, so I took this as a good sign.
