SKU: PBSC
The Shaker Classic by POWERbreathe is an easy to use respiratory device for breaking down secretions of the airways, such as mucus and catarrh. It is helpful for improving breathing in people suffering from respiratory conditions including cystic fibrosis, asthma and chronic bronchitis. It is also suitable for both children and adults.
Each Shaker mucus clearance device requires a minimum pressure of cmH2O when exhaling through to be most beneficial. The Shaker Medic Plus requires the least amount of pressure and the Shaker Deluxe requires the most. This Shaker Classic requires 9cmH2O.
This Shaker Classic is a gravity-dependent OPEP (oscillatory positive expiratory pressure) device and a 2018 study found āthe gravity-dependent devices were the ones to display close mechanical performances and produce optimal operational parameters at the simulated exhalation settings.ā

Description
Inside the casing of the Shaker Classic is a weighted ball. By breathing into the Shaker Classic, the ball is raised, but then falls under its own weight. This rise and fall action happens extremely quickly and to the user, feels like a vibration. This vibration, combined with the gentle resistance created by breathing against the ball causes a number of positive benefits. Changes in air pressure mean the smaller airways are encouraged to open, increasing lung usage and efficiency. Mucus is thinned or dislodged by the vibration and increased airflow helps this mucus to move to the large airways where gentle coughing can expel it.
The Shaker Classic can be used anywhere, offering simple and convenient relief from excessive mucus and its associated problems. Shaker Classic can be used for chronic conditions such as COPD, asthma, emphysema and acute problems like chesty coughs, flu and bronchitis. By clearing the airways the chances of developing lung infections and damaging the lungs is reduced. Lung function is also improved, reducing breathlessness and fatigue.
By positioning the device so that it generates the maximum vibration in the lungs, you should be able to gentlyĀ cough and expel any secretions or mucus.
