3 Citations | [2] Its use in clearing the airway because of mucus plug is considered as a standard practice particularly in patients where physiotherapy has failed to do so. |
30 Citations | Fluid dynamics of mucus plug rupture is important to understand mucus clearance in lung airways and potential effects of mucus plug rupture on epithelial cells at lung airway walls. |
19 Citations | Mucus secretions of the intestine may contribute to plug formation in CF, through several mechanisms acting alone or simultaneously. |
5 Citations | Finally, exercise is good for you, but airway clearance is better for mucus clearance. |
