Portable mucus clearance device
The Flutter is a small, lightweight mucus clearance device that requires no power and can be used anywhere at any time.
The Flutter device works by the patient exhaling into the device, this causes the ball-bearing inside the casing to vibrate. The vibrations travel back into the lungs, these vibrations loosen the mucus in the airways. Gentle coughing then removes the mucus.

EFFECTIVE ALTERNATIVE TO PHYSIOTHERAPY
Short sessions required
Mucus secretion and clearance are extremely important for airway integrity and pulmonary defense. If trapped mucus is not cleared, it makes breathing difficult and if allowed to build up, it leads to infection and damage to the lungs.
Sessions typically last between 5 and 15 minutes. The Flutter is an effective alternative to physiotherapy.
The Flutter is used for conditions such as:
Cystic Fibrosis
Bronchiectasis
Emphysema
Chronic Bronchitis
COPD
Warning: Do not use if patient suffers from any of the following:
Acute right-sided heart failure
Pneumothorax
