    Abstract: An exemplary example of a medical device can include a retention structure for at least partially encircling a patient's body, the retention structure including a central member and a support portion configured to be placed underneath a patient, a piston extending from the central member, a driver coupled to the piston configured to retract and extend the piston, a patient contact member attached to the piston, the patient contact member configured to adhere to the patient's body, and a controller. The controller can be configured to cause the driver during a session to perform at least two cycles of negative pressure ventilation, each of the at least two cycles of negative pressure ventilation including positioning the piston at a reference position, retracting the piston from the reference position to an expansion position to expand a chest of a patient to generate negative pressure ventilation, and returning the piston from the expansion position to the reference position.
