How the Zephyr Valve Helps People with Severe COPD/Emphysema Breathe Easier1
The Zephyr Valve is a minimally invasive treatment option that is not another medication and does not require cutting or incisions. Tiny valves are placed into a targeted section of the diseased lung where air has become trapped. The trapped air causes shortness of breath. The one-way valve allows the trapped air to escape, resulting in patients being able to breathe easier and experience less shortness of breath.1
