The points of impact of instrumental support in respiratory physiotherapy are numerous; they concern primarily the pulmonary expansion, bronchial drainage and function of respiratory muscles. The pulmonary expansion may be helped by incitant spirometry and either intermittent or continuous positive pressure respiration, or indirectly by the utilisation of respiration against resistance (expiratory bottles, masks with uni-directional valves and expiratory resistances etc.). These different techniques may be used in the presence of instability of the respiratory units, secondary to an alteration of surfactant or to closure of the small airways induced by a transitory reduction (in the post-operative period) or permanent reduction (such as parietal wall disease of mechanical or neuro-muscular origin) of the functional residual capacity (CRF). If the continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) seems particularly helpful for the CRF to recover to the pre-operative level it also appears on the contrary as the least efficacious technique to increase trans-pulmonary pressure. The instrumental support for bronchial drainage may theoretically affect the tension activity of the transport (instrumental help in the pulmonary expansion and in hyperventilation), muco-ciliary transport (external parietal vibration or internal vibrations applied to the upper airways), the biphasic flow (expiratory assistance by negative pressure and humidifiers). The function of the respiratory muscles may in certain cases be improved by the use of abdominal pneumatic cuirasses, by hyperventilation exercises in an isocapnoeic milieu or in breathing exercises against an additional inspiratory or expiratory resistance. If the physiological foundation of mechanical support in respiratory education may be frequently identified, the clinical results reported in the literature are often contradictory.
