Can Children Use EWOT?

Overview

The primary risks of EWOT are the same risks with exercise, and this is true in children as well.  Additionally, since EWOT involves a mask worn on the face with a hose, there are risks of tripping or getting tangled in the hose.  Use supervision with children if they are using EWOT equipment.

Guidelines

• Always consult a pediatric physician.

• Use the appropriate mask size.

  
  

Warning

Never allow unsupervised EWOT sessions for children.
