description Introduction: Controlling and preventing symptoms of exacerbations, shortness of breath, cough and mucus in the lungs are important goals of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) treatment. Oscillating Positive Expiratory Pressure (OPEP) devices have been shown to improve clinical results. The conservation of energy and oxygen, as well as, the prevention of lung infections and reducing rehospitalisation may be facilitated by clearing the lungs. There are several airway clearance devices, that can be used to help clear excessive sputum. Aim: To identify the effect of aerobika device versus acapella device on rehospitalisation and lung functions in COPD patients. Materials and Methods: This systematic review was conducted in the Department of Physiotherapy at Acharya Vinoba Bhave Rural Hospital, Sawangi, Wardha, Maharashtra, India. The duration of the study was three months, from march 2022 to june 2022. Five databases (PubMed, scopus, web of science, google scholar) were searched from 2012 to 2022. Inclusion criteria consisted of studies on the effect of aerobika device and acapella device on rehospitalisation and lung functions only in COPD patients. Data extraction included baseline features, treatment intervention, training frequency, supervision level, breathlessness, acute exacerbation, and outcomes. High quality experimental trials and comparative studies were chosen for the study. Results: A total of 20 articles were extracted; five were utilised for the purpose of writing the review, emphasising the effect of aerobika device versus acapella device on rehospitalisation and lung functions in COPD patients. Studies had showed inconsistent results on the effect of aerobika device versus acapella device on rehospitalisation and lung functions in COPD patients. Conclusion: Rehospitalisation, readmission and length of the stay can be reduced by using both, aerobika and acapella devices. Both devices are effective in improving lung function in COPD patients.
