Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to test a lung air vibrator device for vibrating air inside the lung. This exploratory diagnostic trial will test a novel and non-invasive means of detecting lower airway infections using exhaled breath sample.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This study has two phases. Once the subject has consented phase 1 will start by the subject breathing air out of their lungs into the device. Next, the subject will simply breathe through the mouthpiece with the machine turned on and take samples of exhaled air.

In phase 2, the subjects will breathe air out of their lungs into the device for 15 minutes. Next, the subject will simply breathe through the mouthpiece with the machine turned on and take samples of exhaled air for 15 minutes.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Group 1 will receive 15 Hz

Group 1 (n=30), these subjects will receive 10 minutes of High Frequency Oscillation at 15 Hz at .75 cm on day 1. Then will have a 24 hour washout. On day 2 will receive 10 minutes of low Frequency Oscillation at 15 Hz at 1.25 cm.
