Optimizing Pulmonary Ventilation with the ALPHA 200c
The ALPHA 200c by Air Liquide is an innovative respiratory rehabilitation solution, ideal for patients with lung conditions or those requiring assistance in their respiratory recovery. This device operates on the principle of Intermittent Positive Pressure Breathing (IPPB), assisting the patient during inspiration by generating an appropriate air pressure. Once the predefined pressure is reached, the device switches to the expiratory phase, encouraging the patient to exhale actively.
Thanks to this approach, the ALPHA 200c helps to:
- Improve lung expansion
- Enhance the patient’s vital capacity
- Mobilize deep bronchial secretions for easier clearance
- Optimize respiratory function and promote better oxygenation
This device is particularly recommended for post-operative patients, immobilized individuals, or those suffering from chronic lung diseases such as COPD or cystic fibrosis. Its use in hospitals, physiotherapy clinics, or at home provides tailored support for each need, giving the patient greater autonomy.
The ALPHA 200c stands out for its ease of use. Its LCD screen clearly displays treatment settings, ensuring precise adjustment and monitoring to meet therapeutic requirements. It features an adjustable inspiratory flow rate from 20 to 60 L/min, an inspiratory trigger range of -1 to -8 hPa, and a four-position expiratory resistance, allowing optimal ventilation customization.
By assisting inspiration and stimulating pulmonary ventilation, the ALPHA 200c helps patients gradually regain more effective breathing while facilitating mucus clearance. Its ergonomic and compact design makes it easy to transport, suitable for on-the-go use.
The ALPHA 200c thus represents a true breath of freedom for patients seeking improved respiratory capacity while providing healthcare professionals with a reliable and high-performance tool for managing respiratory conditions.
