Clinically tested, the non-invasive CoughAssistâ„¢ Mechanical In-Exsufflator (MI-E) from J.H. Emerson Co. safely and effectively clears retained broncho-pulmonary secretions, reducing the risk of respiratory complications. Easy to use, the device avoids airway damage while offering patients greater comfort and quality of life without use of an invasive procedure.
