Quake
Quake logo For individuals suffering from mucus-producing respiratory conditions, the Quake offers comprehensive and convenient secretion clearance therapy in a portable, easy-to-use, handheld device.

The heart of the Quake’s percussion mechanism is two barrels with matching slots with one fitting snugly over the other. When these slots are aligned, the patient's breath passes freely through device. When the slots are not aligned, back pressure is created as the patient's continuous breath is prevented from escaping. This design allows the patient, with your training, to create the ideal frequency and percussive pressure by manually rotating the outer barrel at the ideal rate while breathing through the device. The faster a patient rotates the handle, the greater the frequency and lower the pressure; the slower the handle rotation, the lower the frequency and greater the pressure. This fully dynamic mode in combination with the Quake's greater overall percussive pressure creates a truly thoughtful solution. In addition, this active rather than passive patient involvement while using the Quake can only contribute to a patient’s disease self-management.

The Quake’s design also provides a more intense expiratory pressure than competitive devices. The Quake’s precisely matched, slotted barrels ensure a user’s breath is completely occluded and opened in a repetitive and easily repeatable fashion. This precise design results in a much more intense yet still fully variable expiratory pressure as compared to other handheld devices. This ability to create a more dramatic pressure differential is what makes the Quake a truly thoughtful solution for airway clearance therapy.
