Questions

In term of case assistance

Aim at bringing a “feedback” on the Flutter®.

Need for “reactive and playful” information.

Interest for an encouraging role (back-up) or motivation “to achieve the exhalations”.

In term of care

The care consists in a series of “controlled exhalations”.

During a session, one of the objectives is to succeed in “holding the  good frequency” or a “series of frequencies”.

The “good working frequencies” are indicated by the medical assistant according to various factors.

The required precision on the frequency

is “of about one Hz”.

The “HOLDING TIME” of the good

frequency is also a factor of car.

Each period may vary a lot

according to the patient

(typ. of 15 min. to 1h30,

twice a day).

An exhalation may last from

A few seconds to ten seconds.

Relevance of the operating

frequency of the Flutter® concept?

Interest of the frequency control without concomitant rate measurement?

Non consideration of the breathing out techniques variability and of operating

rate phases associated

to the Flutter®...
