Overview
Meet the Volara System (Home Care)
Hospital-Level 3-In-1 Therapy Now Available at Home
OLE therapy has been shown to improve outcomes for hospitalized respiratory patients. Now, our versatile, 3-in-1 Volara System allows you to benefit from OLE therapy in the comfort of your own home. The Volara System provides Continuous Positive Expiratory Pressure (CPEP) to expand lungs and airways, Continuous High Frequency Oscillation (CHFO) pulses to dislodge mucus and remove via suction or coughing, and nebulized medication to relax your airways and loosen secretions.
Now, with the Volara System, your patients can benefit from OLE therapy at home.
How It Works
The Volara System assists with two vital airway clearance processes: CPEP therapy expands the lungs, enabling mobilization and evacuation of secretions. CHFO therapy mobilizes secretions to the large airways. Throughout both processes a nebulizer delivers aerosol medication for therapy efficiency.
CPEP
Continuous Positive Expiratory Pressure treats and helps prevent pulmonary atelectasis by combining continuous positive pressure with aerosol medication, to help expand and hold the airways open.
CHFO
Continuous High Frequency Oscillation, a pneumatic form of chest therapy, delivers continuous pulses of positive pressure combined with aerosol medication to mobilize and treat retained secretions.
Nebulizer
Integrated with CPEP and CHFO for medication delivery during therapy to help loosen secretions.
| Expansion | |||
|---|---|---|---|
 |  |  |  |
| Continuous positive expiratory pressure and increased airflow are combined with aerosol medication | Secretions are loosened | Continuous high frequency oscillation during both inspiration and expiration forms a pressure gradient | Accelerated expiratory airflow mobilizes secretions to the larger airways, where they can be cleared by coughing or suctioning |
| Mobilization | |||
|---|---|---|---|
 |  |  |  |
| Continuous pulses of positive pressure combined with aerosol medication are delivered to the airways | Secretions are loosened | Continuous high frequency oscillation during both inspiration and expiration forms a pressure gradient | Accelerated expiratory airflow mobilizes secretions to the larger airways, where they can be cleared by coughing or suctioning |

Clinically Proven Therapy for Patients Hospital-Wide1,2
A 419-patient, two-phase multicenter study1 showed that pulmonary treatment with OLE therapy, along with standard respiratory therapy, reduced the rate of certain PPCs in high-risk surgical patients who underwent thoracic, upper abdominal or aortic open surgical procedures.
