Description
This book describes the use of inspiratory and expiratory muscle aids to prevent the pulmonary complications of lung disease and conditions
with muscle weakness. It also describes treatment and rehabilitation interventions specific for patients with these conditions. This
book is unique in presenting the use of entirely noninvasive management alternatives to eliminate respiratory morbidity and mortality
and avoid the need to resort to tracheostomy for the majority of patients with lung or neuromuscular disease.
Audience
Rehabilitation Specialists, Neurologists, Pulmonologists, Anesthesiologists, Respiratory Therapists, Physical Therapists
