What is SmartVest?

Choose an effective, convenient, and comfortable airway clearance therapy with the SmartVest Airway Clearance System.

The system works by delivering rapidly repeating pulses of air that squeeze and release the upper body, known as high frequency chest wall oscillation, or “HFCWO.”

These gentle, yet powerful “mini coughs” loosen, thin, and propel mucus towards major airways where it can be more readily coughed out or suctioned away.

  • Comfortable

    Our airway clearance vest uses a unique open system design with “active inflate - active deflate,” making deep and easy breaths possible during treatment and leading to improved therapy adherence.

  • Easy to Use

    The SmartVest garment’s Velcro‑like closures, soft‑touch fabric, and single‑hose design make treatment easy, every time.

  • Convenient

    Therapy protocols can be set once and used repeatedly for consistent therapy. The one‑touch start makes vest therapy a breeze.
