Airway Clearance Techniques: Infant CPT

[@StopTheWorld65]

It may look harsh, but this is often necessary to clear mucus or fluid from the lungs. The position the baby is in and how he’s being held by the jaw is fine. Think about it, babies meltdown and cry about every little discomfort. This baby is tolerating it well.

I was just looking at this device on Amazon nice to know it actually works my baby is always sounding congested but nothing ever comes out with suction

[@MrRedstardude]

Poor babies. I hope that there will be a cure for cystic fibrosis and all other lung conditions soon.

Thank you for this great video. I have a question though, how deep do you go with the suction tube? and what size of suction tube do you use? Thank you again

Woo thanks dear

[@redrum4100]

I was patting my baby way harder than that, and got told off by several of the professionals dealing with my baby's case, as they said it wasn't nearly hard enough.

Where can you find the cupping tool?

[@kimberlyamsel8916]

I just asked the same thing. Did you get an answer?

[@monakasm1978]

What is this used for percussion

[@carolynmccord2399]

Its used to get the mucus of of someone's lungs. Because cystic fibrosis is just like having pneumonia all the time
