Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Age 18 years and older
  • Admission to the inpatient medical service
  • Physician-diagnosed asthma or asthma/COPD or COPD exacerbation.
  • Evidence of airflow obstruction on spirometry

You may not qualify if:

  • More than 24 hours since admission to the inpatient medical service
  • Admission to an intensive care unit
  • Hospital discharge planned within the next 24 hours
  • Other chronic respiratory disease (e.g., sarcoidosis, idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis)
  • Chest wall abnormalities (e.g., severe kyphoscoliosis) that precludes using the vest
  • Chest wall or abdominal trauma/surgery in the past 6 weeks that precludes using the vest
  • Physician declines to provide consent
  • Patient unable (e.g., history of cognitive impairment, unable to understand English) or declines to provide consent
  • Previous participant in this study
  • Corticosteroid therapy (prednisone \>0 mg/d equivalent) for \>1 week prior to admission
