Abstract
Intrapulmonary percussion with a high-frequency jet system is a new method in the treatment of respiratory impairment. It imitates the conventional percussion massage of the thorax by introducing high-frequency gas oscillations (300 impulses per minute) into the tracheobronchial system. In 14 patients with abnormal alveolo-arterial oxygen differences due to bronchial mucostasis ventilation was satisfactorily improved by its application.
