Abstract

This paper presents a conceptual design proposal for a pulmonary rehabilitation device for patients recovered from COVID-19 with mild and moderate symptoms and with conditions in their daily lives. The design proposal consists of four systems: one control and monitoring, another chest breathing restriction system, a clavicular movement inhibitor system and a vibration system.
