Herrero-Cortina, Beatriz; Oliveira, Ana; Polverino, Eva; Gómez-Trullén, Eva María; Torres, Antoni; Marques, AldaObjective: To examine the feasibility of adventitious respiratory sound (ARS) as an outcome measure to assess the effects of airway clearance techniques (ACTs) in outpatients with bronchiectasis. Methods: ARS were registered pre/post four ACTs sessions. Clinical outcomes included: number of crackles (coarse and fine), number of wheezes (monophonic and polyphonic), wheezes occupation rate (%) and sputum quantity...
