Summary

A medical professional trained in the procedure and use of the device will conduct the vibroacoustic therapy session. He will also take blood samples. In the control group, patients will undergo vibroacoustic pulmonary therapy in the "Pneumonia" mode, and in the control group, in the "Prevention" mode. Vibroacoustic pulmonary therapy will be conducted over a period of 5 days. A similar algorithm of actions is planned for both groups. VALT sessions will be conducted 4-6 times a day for 5 minutes in combination with treatment according to the protocol for the use of "Vibroacoustic Therapy" of the lungs of the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Kazakhstan. The device's emitters will be applied to the affected areas of the lungs. Since the device has long cords for the emitters and is portable, it is not difficult to change the patient's position and does not require their active participation, which is important for patients on ventilators and with limited mobility.

Type	Name	Description
DEVICE	Vibrolung	BARK VibroLUNG vibroacoustic device (No. RK-MT-7No.013611 dated October 7, 2014). The device is designed for the treatment and prevention of respiratory diseases. The device operates on the principle of exposure to a powerful vibroacoustic signal generated by special emitters. During the procedure, the emitters are pressed against the surface of the chest, and the procedure lasts an average of 5 minutes. The frequency of the signal constantly changes and has complex modulation, which ensures maximum effectiveness. Depending on the selected program, the signal can cause the effect of percussion, soft vibration, smooth alternation of acoustic signal and vibration, or combinations thereof.
