    Can anyone tell me what a caugh machine is?

    How it works?

    How do I use it?

    Do I need to undergo a operation?

    cough assist is a machine that helps you create a deeper more effective cough. much better than Ambu bag method and easier to do yourself.

    you use a mask and hold it too nose/mouth. and it encourages the cough.

    No operation.

    the link below is for physios so cant log in but it shows a decent pic of someone using such a machine. nice small machine too I have only ever seen older huger models.
