Measure
HFCWO / VEST Group
Patients will receive HFCWO therapy via the VEST(TM). Each Vest treatment will be accompanied by a simultaneous nebulized bronchodilator treatment. High Frequency Chest Wall Oscillation via Vest (Hill-Rom Vest(tm)): Simultaneous to bronchodilator treatment via nebulizer (regular treatment), patients will receive 15 minutes of HFCWO via the Vest.
Standard Care
Regular nebulized bronchodilator treatment. Sham Vest treatment as investigator is blinded to whether patient actually received Vest treatment. Regular nebulized bronchodilator treatment.: Sham Vest treatment.
