Abstract:
In some embodiments, a kit may include systems allowing for clearing a biological airway. The kit may include an inner wearable system worn, during use, on a torso of a subject. The kit may include a plurality of engines which when activated apply an oscillation force to at least one treatment area of the subject. At least one of the plurality of engines may be releasably couplable to the inner wearable system. The oscillation force may be applied to at least one of the treatment areas of the subject such that the oscillation force mobilizes, during use, at least some secretions in an airway within the subject at least adjacent the treatment area. The kit may include an outer wearable system worn, during use, on a torso of a subject which when activated, adjusts the oscillation force. The kit may include one or more batteries and/or a control unit.

Abstract:
In some embodiments, a method may include clearing a biological airway. The method may include positioning an inner wearable harness on a torso of a subject. The method may include selectively positioning at least some of a plurality of engines on and/or adjacent at least one treatment area. At least one of the plurality of engines may be releasably couplable to the inner wearable harness. The method may include positioning an outer wearable harness on a torso of a subject. The method may include applying an oscillation force to at least one of the treatment areas using at least some of the plurality of engines. The method may include adjusting the applied oscillation force to the treatment area by activating the outer wearable harness. The method may include mobilizing at least some secretions in an airway within the subject substantially adjacent the at least one treatment area.

Abstract:
A medical device system is disclosed that includes a wearable harness worn, during use, on a torso of a subject. Engines coupled to the wearable harness may apply an oscillation force to at least one treatment area of the subject in order to mobilize at least some secretions in an airway within the subject substantially adjacent to the at least one treatment area. The wearable harness may be secured on the subject using one or more straps coupled to the wearable harness. A controller may determine a tension force applied by at least one of the straps by receiving, measurements of at least one property from a force sensing element (e.g., a force sensor) integrated with the strap. The tension force may also be correlated to forces being applied to the subject by the engines.
