Lung Compressor, Air Compression 6" Belt with Gauge.

The Lung Compressor, Air Compression Belt with Gauge is designed to put pressure just below the lungs to limit lung movement with respirations.  This item includes includes the Air Compression Belt that has an attached measuring tape with both centimeters and inches marking and the pressure gauge. The air bladder with a cotton cover is Velcro attached to a 60" (152.4 cm) long Velcro belt which is wrapped snugly around the patient just below the sternal notch.  Once the belt and air bladder are in position on the patient, the air bladder is manually inflated with a hand pump.  The included pressure gauge is used to record the amount of pressure used to achieve the desired limits of lung movement.  This allows for reproducibility of the same amount of pressure for each treatment fraction.  The pressure gauge does not contain any mercury.
