Overview

Bring the reality of COPD to life with this audible, interactive model. COPD sufferers experience a drowning sensation as their diseased lungs can’t exhale fully and an abundance of thick mucus clogs their airways. This lifelike model of a damaged lung swims in simulated phlegm, and picking up the jar triggers a voice module that plays a recording of a gasping, gurgling cough. An interactive teaching tool to deter smoking and inspire smoking cessation.
