Kalos Cough Assist

Kalos Cough Assist mechanical in- and exsufflator incl. remote control

The Kalos cough assistant stands out for its performance and innovative modes for mobilising tracheobronchial secretions.

Kalos is designed to mobilise and remove tracheobronchial secretions non-invasively and without the use of suction catheters. This can reduce the risk of infection for the patient. Various setting options as well as the combination of the Free Aspire and Cough Assist operating modes make it possible to use the device in a way that is pleasant for the patient. An integrated rechargeable battery provides the option of mains-independent use.
