Zephyr treatment

How do I get a review for the Zephyr treatment

  1. Hi linzie, and welcome! I see you are a new member here, having joined today, much earlier in the morning. We are glad to see you are already engaging with the community through this, your first post.
    As I understand your inquiry, you are looking for information regarding the endobronchial valve procedure. In some of these procedures, the brand, Zephyr, is used for the valves. You should be aware there are other brands available to doctors, as well.
    We actually have a wealth of published material (right here on COPD.net), which speaks to all aspects of this procedure. I thought you might gain some additional insight by reading this material (as much or, as little, as you'd like!) For your convenience, here is a link to several articles: https://copd.net/search?s=Endobronchial%20valve%20zephyr%20valve. I think you will see we have varied information, some which even shares anecdotal experiences from fellow community members, who have had the procedure performed.
    Are you being evaluated for having this procedure done for yourself?
    Wishing you well,
    Leon (site moderator COPD.net)
