Background and Identification

The Philips Emerson CoughAssist E70 (Model number: CA-3000 - K002598) was released to the public in Dec 2012. The Philips Respironics CoughAssist T70 is a portable electric device that utilizes a blower and a valve to apply alternating positive and then negative pressure to a patient's airway to assist the patient in clearing retained bronchopulmonary secretions by simulating a cough. It includes a means to adjust the pressure and suction levels applied, a pressure gauge, and a means to reduce the positive pressure flow. The air is delivered to and from the patient through a breathing circuit incorporating a flexible tube, a bacterial filter or a facemask, a mouthpiece, or an adapter to a tracheostomy or endotracheal tube. Weighing about 8 pounds, the Philips Emerson CoughAssist E70 has one display that shows all the data. It also has a power button close to the display with additional buttons for settings, mode, and standby. Other features are:

  • Patient Circuit including a bacteria filter
  • 6 ft (1.83 m) flexible tubing
  • Adult Large Mask
  • Carrying Case,
  • AC Power Cord
  • Air Filter and Hose Clip
  • SD Card
