With your purchase funds raised will support the purchase of a Cough Assist machine. Cough assist machines are an integral part of the daily respiratory management of patients with neuromuscular disorders (NMD). Due to muscle weakness, patients with NMD have reduced capacity to cough and an increased risk of chest infections requiring hospitalisations. Cough assist machines allow NMD patients to fully inflate their lungs and produce an effective cough to clear respiratory secretions and reduce the number and severity of chest infections.
Each machine is allocated to a child with NMD for use at home on a daily basis to prevent and treat chest infections.
