## Questions & Answers

**Q: What is the difference between dm and dh**
A: Mouthpiece (detachable) acapella® is available in: GREEN: acapella® DH is recommended for patients able to maintain an expiratory flow of 15 liters per minute or greater for 3 seconds. BLUE: acapella® DM is recommended for patients capable of less than 15 liters per minute for 3 seconds.

**Q: How do you  use this device?  inhale?  exhale?  does it adjust?  no instructions came with this.**
A: I got instructions with mine. Inhale & then blow on the mouthpiece. The adjustment is on the end opposite the mouthpiece. To wash just take the mouthpiece off & place it & the device in hot soapy water.

**Q: I can not get this this open to clean it, how do you do it?**
A: It doesn't open to clean. Take the mouth piece off & put in soapy water. Put the large part in soapy water.

**Q: How often does this need to be cleaned?  Since it doesn't open up, it would take a long time to dry before it can be used again.**
A: I clean mine once a week. If you set it on end, it takes less than 12 hours to dry, which makes it usable twice a day.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I Guess It's Helping
*by @***6 on August 23, 2023*

I've only used this tool a few times. It took a couple tries to get it right. One YouTube tutorial I watched was all wrong and practically useless. But I researched online and finally learned how to use the Acapella correctly. (Couldn't find any detailed instructions that came with the tool itself. Weird.) One thing I can't seem to master is NOT coughing after each use, but I'm beginning to think the instructions about "not coughing" until one has used the tool about 10 times in a row are a bit misleading.
