The Zephyr® Valve is not another medication or surgery. The valves are placed by bronchoscopy which requires no incisions or cutting, so the benefits are achieved without many of the risks of traditional surgical options. The minimally invasive procedure allows the healthier parts of your lungs to expand, lifts pressure off the diaphragm, and helps you breathe easier.1
