What is metaneb treatment?
MetaNeb treatment helps expand your lungs, clear your lungs of mucus, mobilize your secretions, and improve your breathing. The MetaNeb® System provides four specific functions: high-frequency oscillation, continuous positive expiratory pressure (CPEP), supplemental oxygen, and aerosol therapy. MetaNeb treatment functions:
Does the metaneb® system reduce pulmonary complications in high risk patients?
To determine if a therapy regimen including treatment with The MetaNeb® System has a positive impact on the rate of pulmonary complications that occur in high risk post-operative patients. This is a non-randomized facility (or hospital) level pre-post intervention study.
What are the indications for the metanebtm system?
The MetaNebTM System is indicated when mobilization of secretions, lung expansion and treatment and prevention of pulmonary atelectasis is indicated.
What is the frequency of the metaneb?
The MetaNeb®was attached to an approved 50psi oxygen source and applied using an open-ended bagging circuit (FiO21.0) in Continuous High Frequency Oscillation mode (230 breaths per minute, 3.8Hz) for a period of approximately 10 minutes per treatment.
Is MetaNeb a contraindication?
Contraindication to MetaNeb® therapy (untreated tension pneumothorax) Inability to perform MetaNeb® therapy using a mouthpiece....MetaNeb® Chest X-ray Study.Condition or diseaseIntervention/treatmentPhaseAtelectasisDevice: The MetaNeb® SystemNot Applicable
What does a MetaNeb do?
The MetaNeb® System is a therapeutic device utilized by the physiotherapist to assist with airway clearance and lung expansion by providing a simultaneous combination of positive pressure, continuous high frequency oscillations and aerosol delivery.
Can you use MetaNeb with a trach?
The MetaNeb can be given in-line with a ventilator circuit, mouth piece, face mask, or directly to a trach. A few examples of patients that would benefit from this therapy are: Cystic Fibrosis patients. Patients with decreased lung volumes.
When should I take MetaNeb?
The MetaNeb® System is indicated for mobilization of secretions, lung expansion therapy, the treatment and prevention of pulmonary atelectasis, and also has the ability to provide supplemental oxygen when used with compressed oxygen.
Is MetaNeb the same as IPV?
The Metaneb® System (Hill-Rom, Inc. Batesville, Indiana), which was FDA approved in to be used in the hospital setting , is similar to the IPV® device and uses similar engineering to provide the unique gas flow characteristics of IPV®, called chest high frequency oscillations (CHFO) (Figure 1).
What three therapies are combined in a MetaNeb treatment?
Three therapies in one The MetaNeb System is indicated for the mobilisation of secretions, lung expansion therapy, the treatment and prevention of pulmonary atelectasis, and has the ability to provide supplemental oxygen when used with compressed oxygen.
What is Cpep in MetaNeb?
* CPEP (Continuous Positive Expiratory Pressure)-supplies medicated aerosol combined with continuous positive pressure to help hold open and expand the airways. There are three major components to The MetaNeb® System: * Circuit - includes a mouthpiece, handset, nebulizer, tubing, and filter/tri-connector.
Is IPPB a MetaNeb?
Inspiratory positive-pressure breathing (IPPB), Intermittent positive end expiratory pressure (EzPAP), and chest airway clearance (Metaneb) are hyperinflation therapies used after surgery.
What is EzPAP?
Discussion: EzPAP is a small, portable device that is normally used as post-operative therapy to prevent or reverse atelectasis in adult patients unable to do incentive spirometry or other maneuvers to augment lung volumes.
What is in a MetaNeb treatment?
The MetaNeb® System provides four specific functions: high-frequency oscillation, continuous positive expiratory pressure (CPEP), supplemental oxygen, and aerosol therapy.
Why is chest physiotherapy important?
The purpose of chest physiotherapy is: To facilitate removal of retained or profuse airway secretions. To optimize lung compliance and prevent it from collapsing. To decrease the work of breathing.

Three therapies in one
The MetaNeb System is indicated for the mobilisation of secretions, lung expansion therapy, the treatment and prevention of pulmonary atelectasis, and has the ability to provide supplemental oxygen when used with compressed oxygen.
Typical therapy cycle
Alternating cycles of CPEP and CHFO combined with aerosol delivery helps maximise therapy effectiveness.
