Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the preferences and clinical practices of physicians in Saudi Arabia regarding airway clearance devices for managing chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
- A survey conducted with 445 physicians revealed that most prefer Flutter and Acapella devices, but 12.6% were unfamiliar with any device.
- Despite the preferences, there is a notable lack of prescribing history for these devices, indicating a need for increased awareness and integration into COPD treatment practices.
